Egg, Bacon, and Cream Cheese Biscuit Cups Recipe

Egg, Bacon, and Cream Cheese Biscuit Cups

Every Christmas morning, I delight in making egg, bacon, and cream cheese biscuit cups for my family, a tradition that has turned our festive gathering into a cherished culinary experience. The combination of crispy bacon, creamy filling, and buttery biscuit creates an irresistible treat that everyone eagerly anticipates.

How to Make the Biscuit Cups

To prepare these delightful cups, I start by heating the oven to 375°F and spraying eight regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. In a bowl, I beat an 8 oz package of softened cream cheese until smooth, then gradually blend in 2 tablespoons of milk and 2 eggs until the mixture reaches a creamy consistency. I stir in ½ cup of shredded Swiss cheese along with 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions, which add a fresh, vibrant flavor.

Next, I separate a can of Pillsbury Golden Layers refrigerated biscuits into eight pieces, rolling each to form a 5-inch round that perfectly lines the muffin cups with a quarter-inch rim. I then sprinkle half of a package of bacon pieces on the bottom of each biscuit-lined cup before generously spooning in the creamy cheese mixture. After baking these delectable cups for 21 to 26 minutes, until the filling is set and the edges are golden brown, I finish them off by adding the remaining bacon pieces on top, and gently pressing them into the filling.
