Equipment

  • 12-cup muffin tin

Ingredients
  

Tater Tot Base

  • 32 ounce frozen tater tots
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon ranch seasoning

Filling

  • 8 ounce cheddar cheese, cut into ½ inch squares
  • 1 cup bacon pieces

Toppings

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 425F degrees. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non stick cooking spray.
  • Add 6 tater tots into each muffin cup. Sprinkle a little garlic powder and ranch seasoning over all the tater tots.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are soft enough to smash.
  • Using the back of a spoon or a small glass, gently press down on the tater tots to create a cup.
  • Add 2 cubed pieces of cheddar cheese and a few crumbled bacon pieces to each tater tot cup.
  • Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Carefully remove the tater tot cups from the muffin tin, and top each with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of green onions.
