I invented these cute little muffins so I could enjoy the flavor of cheeseburgers without resorting to fast food. I often freeze a batch and reheat however many I need, including as appetizers. —Teresa Kraus, Cortez, Colorado

Editor's Note: Muffins may be baked in regular-size muffin cups for 20-25 minutes; recipe makes 2 dozen.

Test Kitchen Tips
  • Mix gently to avoid dense muffins.
  • These also are great with ground pork or turkey.
  • For the most flavor, we recommend using sharp cheddar.

    1. In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.
