How cute! Marge Free of Brandon, Mississippi carved these clever pumpkin pastries to feed her hungry bunch at Halloween. The ground beef filling has a hint of onion and mustard. Ingredients:
1/2 pound ground turkey or beef |
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion |
4 ounces cubed part-skim mozzarella cheese |
1/4 cup prepared mustard |
2 tubes (16.3 ounces each) large refrigerated flaky biscuits |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add cheese and mustard; cook and stir until cheese is melted. Cool slightly. 2. Flatten each biscuit into a 4-in. circle; place four biscuits in each of two greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pans. Spoon 2 heaping tablespoons of meat mixture onto each. 3. Using a sharp knife or cookie cutters, cut out jack-o'-lantern faces from remaining biscuit circles; place over meat mixture and pinch edges to seal tightly. Reroll scraps if desired and cut out stems for pumpkins. 4. Brush with egg. Bake at 350° for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 8 servings. |
