Ingredients
- 48 tater tots frozen
- 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese shredded
- ½ cup Bacon cooked and diced
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- green onion thinly sliced
More Topping Ideas
- chili
- white onion peeled and diced
- broccoli cut into small pieces
- cottage cheese
- brisket chopped
- BBQ sauce
- sour cream
- chives chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease the cups on a mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
- Place three tater tots in each muffin tin cup. Bake for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, remove the muffin pan from the oven and use a tart tamper to press the tater tots down into each cup. (You can also use a muddler or the back of a measuring spoon.) This will form the tater tots into a cup shape to hold the toppings.
- Fill the tater tots with the cheese and bacon (or whatever toppings you like).
- Place the tater tots back in the oven. Cook for another 15 to 20 minutes or until the tots are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 5 minutes. Drizzle ranch dressing over the tots and sprinkle with green onion before serving.
