How to Make Starry Night Taco Cups
- Brown 1 lb ground beef and 1/2 medium onion, chopped, in a large skillet over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 1/2 cup salsa, 1/4 cup ketchup, 1 tablespoon chili powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. Heat through.
- Cut 8 (6-inch) flour tortillas into 4-inch squares. Set aside scraps.
- Microwave 4 squares at a time for 15-20 seconds to soften. (Adjust time as needed based on your microwave).
- Gently press each softened square into the bottom and up the sides of a greased muffin tin cup, forming a taco cup shape.
- Using a 1-inch star-shaped cookie cutter, cut stars from the tortilla scraps.
- Place the star cutouts on a greased baking sheet.
- Bake the star cutouts at 350°F (175°C) for 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Fill each tortilla cup with approximately 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture.
- Bake the filled taco cups at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, lettuce, diced tomatoes, and sour cream. Garnish with the baked tortilla stars and salsa for dipping.
