Ingredients
- Approximately 2 tablespoons of butter melted (for optional topping)
- 4 to 6 slices of provolone or Swiss cheese cut into quarters or small squares
- 1 cup beef stock or homemade au jus for dipping
- About 8 to 10 thin-cut slices of deli-style roast beef
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder for optional topping and dipping sauce
- One tube of refrigerated flaky-layer biscuit dough
- Optional: Worcestershire sauce soy sauce, onion powder (for homemade dipping sauce)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly coat the wells of a standard muffin pan with non-stick spray or oil. Flatten each biscuit and mold it into the muffin cups, pressing the dough up the sides to form a well.
- Layer a folded portion of roast beef into each biscuit cup, followed by a piece of cheese. Make sure to gently tuck in any overhanging edges.
- If desired, mix melted butter with garlic powder and brush it over the exposed dough for added flavor and golden finish.
- Transfer the muffin tin to the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the biscuit shells are lightly browned and puffed, and the cheese is thoroughly melted.
- As the biscuits bake, combine beef broth with a pinch of garlic powder, a splash of Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and a touch of soy sauce in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes, then taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Carefully remove the finished biscuit cups from the muffin pan. Serve warm, accompanied by the prepared dipping sauce. For an optional finishing touch, sprinkle with finely chopped fresh parsley.
Notes
For best results, use a biscuit dough that separates into layers, making it easier to press and shape. The dipping sauce can be customized with additional seasonings like black pepper or thyme to enhance the savory profile.
