Ingredients:

For the Meatloaf Cupcakes:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Whipped Potato Frosting:

  • 2 cups mashed potatoes, whipped until creamy
  • Chopped chives for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture:
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, ketchup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Fill the Muffin Tins:
    • Spoon the meatloaf mixture into the muffin tins, pressing down slightly to compact it. Fill each tin to the top.
  4. Bake:
    • Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatloaf is fully cooked and the edges are lightly crispy.
  5. Whip the Potatoes:
    • While the meatloaf bakes, whip your prepared mashed potatoes until smooth and fluffy.
  6. Cool and Assemble:
    • After baking, let the meatloaf cupcakes cool for a few minutes, then carefully remove them from the tins. Pipe the whipped potatoes on top of each meatloaf cupcake to resemble frosting.
  7. Garnish and Serve:
    • Sprinkle chopped chives over the whipped potatoes. Serve the meatloaf cupcakes warm.
  8. Enjoy:
    • These meatloaf cupcakes are perfect for a family dinner or a fun party dish. The combination of savory meatloaf and creamy mashed potatoes will be a hit with everyone!
