Beef Pot Pie Cupcakes

So I woke up at 3 am & couldn’t sleep for the life of me.  Not wanting to get out of bed, I grabbed my phone & started surfing the web.  You know those kind of nights.  I came across this recipe for chicken pot pie cups & thought, “how cool is that?”.  But I grew up liking beef pot pies.  So I used the idea & made these beef pot pie cupcakes.

These little babies can be an appetizer, snack or meal…..you name it.  If you have kids, I know they’d love  joining in on the action.  And they’re super simple to make.

All you’re gonna need is 12 Pillsbury Grands canned biscuits, 1/4 pound browned ground beef,  frozen mixed veggies, shredded cheddar cheese, Worcestershire sauce, cream of mushroom soup, garlic powder & pepper.

In a large bowl, mix browned ground beef, cream of mushroom soup, frozen veggies, cheese, garlic, Worcestershire & pepper.  Stir well to combine.

Spray cooking spray in a muffin tin & form biscuits like so:

    This was just published on the ZipList News for this week… Way to go…

  2. Just wondering if you’ve tried freezing them either before or after baking and how that went?

      Hi Jaci, I haven’t tried freezing them….they get eaten so fast around here! Next time I make them I will freeze a few & follow up! :-)

  3. I’ve made these twice already and they really freeze well, just microwave for 2 minutes and they are all set to go. I usually double the recipe as they are so popular around here!
    Have shared this recipe with friends who love it! Thanks so much!!
