A delightful combination of cornbread and taco flavors in a bite-sized treat!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef, cooked and seasoned with taco seasoning
- Cornbread mix, prepared according to package instructions for cupcakes
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Sour cream, for topping
- 1 large tomato, diced
- Chopped green onions, for garnish
- Chopped cilantro, for garnish
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cornbread Base:
- Preheat your oven to the temperature indicated on the cornbread mix package.
- Prepare the cornbread mix according to the package instructions.
- Pour the batter into a muffin tin to create cupcake shapes.
- Bake until they’re firm but not fully cooked, about 10-12 minutes (adjust based on your cornbread mix instructions).
- Add the Beef Filling:
- While the cornbread cupcakes are baking, cook and season your ground beef with taco seasoning.
- Once the cupcakes are nearly done, remove them from the oven.
- Use a spoon to scoop out the center of each cupcake, creating space for the filling.
- Spoon in the Savory Goodness:
- Fill the hollowed-out centers of the cornbread cupcakes with the seasoned, cooked ground beef.
- Be generous with the filling to ensure every bite is packed with flavor.
- Top with Cheese and Bake:
- Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese over the beef-filled cupcakes.
- Return them to the oven and bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese melts and starts to bubble.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Once out of the oven, top each taco cupcake with a dollop of sour cream, diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, and fresh cilantro.
- For an extra indulgent twist, add a dollop of guacamole on top.
