Mini Beef Tourtieres image

Here's a twist on the traditional tourtiere recipe. Ground beef replaces pork, and cream cheese pastry takes the place of pie pastry. The filled mini cups make a melt-in-your-mouth addition to a buffet. -Cheryl Bruneau, Winnipeg, Manitoba

Yield about 2-1/2 dozen.

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 cup butter
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
FILLING:
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
1 medium onion, minced

Cover and refrigerate 1 hour. , Meanwhile for filling, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and onion; cook, crumbling meat, until beef is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute more. Add the next 8 ingredients. Stir in bread crumbs to absorb meat juices. Let stand about 10 minutes., On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-3/4-in. round biscuit or cookie cutter. Press crust on bottom and up sides of 30 ungreased mini-muffin cups, rerolling dough as needed., Preheat oven to 375°. Spoon 1 tablespoon filling into each prepared muffin cup. Bake until crust is golden, about 15 minutes. If desired, top with tomatoes and parsley.

I'm not a fan of beef, so I used ground turkey instead. It turned out great!

I had a hard time finding the right size of pie pans, so I ended up making one large tourtiere instead of individual ones.
