A delightful twist on classic barbecue muffins, these savory cups are perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated before baking for even cooking.
Flatten each biscuit into a 5-inch circle.
Use a rolling pin or your hands to flatten the biscuits evenly.
Press each flattened biscuit into the bottom and sides of a greased muffin pan.
Grease the muffin pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.
Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until browned, then drain any excess fat.
Break up the beef into small pieces as it cooks for even browning.
Mix the barbecue sauce and chili powder in a bowl, then stir into the cooked beef.
Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Spoon the beef mixture evenly into the prepared biscuit cups.
Fill the cups generously, but avoid overfilling to prevent spillage.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of each cup.
Press the cheese lightly to help it adhere to the filling.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Check the cups halfway through baking to ensure even cooking.
Let the cups cool slightly before serving.
Allowing the cups to cool helps them hold their shape when removed from the pan.
