Yields 2 dozen
1/2 pound raw ground beef
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup ketchup
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
2 eggs
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
2 cups (8 ounces), shredded
Cheddar cheese
In a skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, combine the ketchup, milk, butter, eggs and mustard; stir into the dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in the beef mixture and cheese. Fill greased muffin tins three-quarters full. Bake in preheated oven at 425 degrees for 20–25 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pans to wire racks. Refrigerate leftovers.
