Instructions

Prepare beef

Cook the beef, garlic powder, and pepper in a saucepan over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink; drain and set aside.

Make tart shells

In a bowl, mix the biscuit/baking mix and cornmeal; cut in the butter. Add enough water to form a soft dough. Press into the bottom and sides of greased mini muffin cups. Place one teaspoon of the beef mixture into each shell.

Bake

In a bowl, mix the egg, cream, onion, red pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper; pour over the beef mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 375°F for 20 minutes, until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
