Taco Cupcakes

These Taco Cupcakes are a fun and creative twist on traditional tacos, perfect for parties or a quick weeknight dinner! 🌮🧁✨

    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 pound ground beef or turkey
    • 1 packet taco seasoning
    • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    • 1 cup diced tomatoes
    • 1/2 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
    • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
    • 1 package (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
    • Optional toppings: sour cream, guacamole, jalapeños, cilantro

    Instructions

    1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin.
    2. Cook Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or turkey until browned. Drain excess fat and stir in the taco seasoning according to package instructions. Allow to cool slightly.
    3. Prepare Crescent Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Press each triangle into the greased muffin tin, creating a cup shape.
    4. Fill Cups: Spoon the taco meat mixture into each crescent cup, filling them about 2/3 full.
    5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, black beans, and chopped green onions on top of the meat in each cup.
    6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
    7. Serve: Let cool for a few minutes before removing from the muffin tin. Top with sour cream, guacamole, jalapeños, or cilantro if desired, and enjoy your Taco Cupcakes! 🍽️❤️
