Ingredients
  

1 lb ground beef

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 can biscuit dough (8-count or 16-count for larger servings)

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.

    Cook the Beef Mixture: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook it until it’s fully browned, approximately 5-7 minutes. If there’s excessive fat, drain it. Next, incorporate the finely chopped onion and minced garlic into the skillet, sautéing until the onions become translucent, around 3-4 minutes.

      Season the Beef: Add the Worcestershire sauce, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir everything together and let it cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and mix in the shredded cheddar cheese until it’s melted and evenly combined. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.

        Prepare the Biscuit Cups: Open the can of biscuit dough and gently separate each biscuit. Using your fingers or a rolling pin, flatten each biscuit into a larger circle. Lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or oil, and press the flattened biscuits into each cup, forming a small cup shape by pressing up the sides.

          Fill the Biscuit Cups: Spoon the beef and cheese mixture evenly into each biscuit cup, filling them approximately 3/4 full to allow for rising.

            Egg Wash: In a small bowl, beat the egg until smooth. Use a pastry brush to lightly coat the edges of the biscuit cups with the egg wash, giving them a beautiful golden color when baked.

              Bake: Place the muffin tin into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through.

                Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the cups cool for a few minutes. Carefully lift each biscuit cup from the tin and place them on a serving platter. Sprinkle the tops with chopped fresh parsley for an elegant touch before serving.

                  Enjoy your deliciously savory ground beef and cheddar biscuit cups as a perfect appetizer or a fun meal for family and friends!
