Meatloaf Cupcakes

Meatloaf Cupcakes **MeatCakes!**

1 Pound Hamburger/Ground Beef

Shredded Cheese

Instant or Homemade Mashed Potatoes

Ketchup or Tomato Sauce

1 Egg

Bacon chunks or Bits

1 can biscuits or Crescent Rolls or Cornbread*

First, preheat oven to 375.  Grease muffin/cupcake pan/tin with nonstick spray.

*Optional: A) Stuff a biscuit/ Crescent roll in the bottom of each cup. When filling, make sure biscuit cups the meat cake like a cupcake paper.  Set aside. B) Make cornbread in the baking pan first.  Cut the middle out. Take these  cut out parts of cornbread and mix them in with your meatloaf.

Mix meat, tomato sauce (to taste), and egg in a bowl.  Add breadcrumbs or cornmeal or ground chips to meatloaf and mix if you like.  Spoon the meatloaf into each cup.  Fill to the top or more. Bake them for 20 mins or until brown inside.

Let cool, but not too much.  Spoon or bag** (see instructions below) potatoes onto the top of each "meatcake", like frosting. Bake 5 more minutes or until potatoes start to brown.  Sprinkle with cheese, and bacon pieces.

**BAGGING: Like frosting. Spoon the potatoes into a ziplock bag.  Cut a hole in the bottom corner, and squeeze the potatoes through it to have a more controlled spread on the cakes.
