Crispy cheesy taco “cupcakes” packed with seasoned beef, melty cheese, sour cream, and fresh pico on top.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Ground beef
  • 1 packet Taco seasoning
  • 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese

  2. Lightly grease a muffin tin and press 1–2 wonton wrappers into each cup.
  3. Add a spoonful of beef and a sprinkle of cheese to each cup.
  4. Repeat layers if desired (wrapper → beef → cheese).
  5. Bake at 375°F for 12–15 minutes until edges are golden and crispy.
  6. Top each taco cup with a swirl of sour cream.
  7. Finish with pico de gallo and extra cheese. Serve warm!

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding diced jalapeños to the beef mixture.
  • These can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving.
