EASY SAUSAGE CUPS (LIKE SAUSAGE STARS)



Easy Sausage Cups (Like Sausage Stars) image

This is a variation of Sausage Stars/Sausage Cup recipes that use wanton wrappers and ranch dressing. My version uses Tostitos Scoops (bowl shaped corn chips) and cream cheese for some of the ranch dressing. I made these for Christmas Eve and Super Bowl Sunday, and they were a huge hit on both occasions! You can make the filling in advance and refrigerate until you are ready to assemble and bake. If I am taking these to a party, I fill the shells before I leave home and bake when I arrive at the party. They are also great with regular ranch dressing, but we prefer parmesan peppercorn flavor.

SAUSAGE CUPS



Sausage Cups image

My coworker, Sara, brings these to work occasionally and they are almost gone before she sets the platter down. Great breakfast fare but equally good throughout the day.

Provided by Debbie Quimby

Categories     Other Snacks

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pkg mild sausage (we use jimmy dean)
1 pkg hot sausage (jimmy dean)
1 jar(s) cheese whiz
4 can(s) hungry jack golden layer biscuits
vegetable spray

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven according to biscuit directions.
  • 2. Brown sausage together and drain well. Mix in Cheese Whiz and stir until melted.
  • 3. Spray muffin tins. Split each biscuit in half (if using mini muffin tins, split biscuit into thirds) and press down into greased muffin cups. Spoon sausage mixture into each cup.
  • 4. Bake 5-10 minutes until golden.
  • 5. You can also drain a can of Rotel tomatoes and add them to the sausage mixture for a slightly spicier sausage cup.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality sausage. The sausage is the main ingredient in these cups, so it's important to use a good quality sausage that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. The different cheeses in these cups add flavor and texture. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese to find a combination that you like.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cups tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cups until they are cooked through. The cups should be cooked through when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cups cool slightly before serving. This will make them easier to handle.
  • Garnish the cups with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include parsley, chives, sour cream, and salsa.

Conclusion:

Sausage cups are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover sausage. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a tasty and satisfying snack that everyone will enjoy.
