Instructions
Creating Cheeseburger Cups is straightforward, as long as you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cook Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat.
3. Season Meat: Stir in salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder into the beef. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to enhance flavor.
4. Add Cheese: Remove skillet from heat and mix in shredded cheddar cheese, allowing it to melt slightly.
5. Prepare Biscuit Dough: Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough. Separate each biscuit to make individual cups.
6. Press Dough: In a greased muffin tin, press each biscuit into the bottom and up the sides to create a cup shape.
7. Fill Cups: Spoon the cheesy ground beef mixture into each biscuit cup until they’re approximately three-quarters full.
8. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuit tops are golden brown.
9. Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove the muffin tin and allow the Cheeseburger Cups to cool for a few minutes before serving.
10. Add Toppings: Top with mustard, ketchup, diced pickles, tomatoes, and lettuce as desired.
