I made these last week and the family loved them.
Meatloaf Cupcakes
2 lbs ground beef
1 5oz bottle A1 steak sauce
2 tsp. minced garlic
1 heaping tsp. chives (optional)
heavy sprinkling of minced onion
salt and pepper tt or 1 tbsp of each
ground crumbs 1 1/2 cups
2 cups shredded cheese
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350*F.
2. Combine all ingredients.
3. Fold in with hands until combines well.
4. Roll mix into 1 cup size balls to fit into a cupcake pan. (I used an extra large muffin pan to make them larger, if you use the muffin pan, just adjust the oven times accordingly.) Make sure they fill the cup completely. Then gently press an indention into the top with your thumb.
5. Cook in oven for about 30-40 minutes or until brown.
6. Pull out of oven with mitt and instantly take out of cupcake pan.
7. Layer with ketchup and pipe seasoned mashed potatoes into a design. (optional)
8. Serve very warm.
*If you want to make them cute for a party or the such, you can make up mashed potatoes however you prefer, but make sure they are stiff enough to hold form. And sprinkle with some bacon pieces.*
