Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Taco Bites.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). This is the perfect temperature to get those taco bites nice and golden!
Step 2
Grab your mini muffin pan and give it a light spray with cooking spray to ensure your bites pop out easily after baking.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded Cheddar cheese, salsa, finely chopped green onion, garlic powder, and white sugar. Stir everything together until it's well blended and creamy. This mixture is where all the magic happens!
Step 4
Next, crack in the eggs and mix again until everything is fully incorporated. You want a smooth, delicious filling that’s bursting with flavor.
Step 5
Now, spoon the cheesy mixture into the prepared muffin cups, filling each one generously. Don’t worry if it looks a bit messy; that’s part of the charm!
Step 6
Pop the muffin pan into your preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until each taco bite is set in the middle and has a lovely golden hue. The aroma will be irresistible!
Step 7
Once baked, let them cool for a few minutes before gently removing them from the muffin pan. Serve warm and enjoy these delightful bites with friends or family!
How to Serve
These taco bites are best served warm, and you can pair them with extra salsa or guacamole for dipping. They make a fantastic appetizer for parties or a fun snack for movie night!
How to Store
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to enjoy them warm again.
