Flaky biscuit dough filled with a savory mixture of browned sausage, softened cream cheese, shredded sharp cheddar, and Worcestershire sauce baked in a mini muffin pan for bite-sized, crowd-pleasing snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb sausage (e.g., Jimmy Dean or your favorite variety)
  • 1 (8-oz) package cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 (12-oz) cans Grands Jr flaky biscuits (20 biscuits total, smaller size)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly spray mini muffin pan(s) with cooking spray.
  2. Soften the cream cheese to room temperature.
  3. Cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no pink remains.
  4. Drain excess fat from the cooked sausage.
  5. In a bowl, combine the cooked sausage, softened cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and shredded cheddar; stir until evenly mixed.
  6. Open the biscuit cans and split each biscuit into two smaller rounds.
  7. Press each biscuit round into the prepared mini muffin cups to form biscuit cups.
  8. Fill each biscuit cup with the sausage and cheese mixture.
  9. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
  10. Let the baked bites cool briefly so the filling sets.

Notes

Use hot sausage for a spicy variation or turkey sausage for a lighter option., Drain cooked sausage thoroughly to avoid greasy filling., Add extras like chopped spinach or green onions to the filling for added flavor and color., Assemble biscuit cups in advance and keep covered in the fridge until ready to bake., Store leftovers in an airtight container inside the fridge for up to 3–4 days and reheat in oven or air fryer for best texture., Freeze baked bites up to 2 months; reheat from frozen at 350°F for 12–15 minutes., Freeze unbaked assembled biscuit cups up to 1 month; bake from frozen adding a few minutes to baking time., Do not leave out at room temperature more than 2 hours due to perishable filling ingredients.
