Everyone loves
finger food and today I have a great one!
These Cheeseburger
Bites are perfect for game watching and parties.
I’ve always told people I’d
rather eat an array of little bites than a big meal! That way you get to try
various foods all at the same time.
My new Cheeseburger Bites fit
right into this category of fun appetizers. And right in time for March
Madness!
But if basketball is not your
thing, no sweat…. these are good anytime.
AE
Dairy and I wanted to create a fun finger food for Spring that used one of
their sour cream-based dips.
I immediately wanted to use their Dill Pickle
Sour Cream Dip for a few reasons 1) the dill pickle tang is incredible 2) I
love anything pickle related and 3) everyone loved when I used it making my Dill
Pickle Pizza last year.
So I got to work!
And in true fashion, like all my recipes, I wanted to keep
these simple.
Every good cheeseburger has ground beef, cheese, seasonings,
lettuce, tomato and dill pickles, so that is exactly what I put into these fun
bites.
For the base I used crescent roll dough, as it molds
perfectly into muffin tins and bakes up perfectly holding all the goods for the
cheeseburger filling.
So where does the dip come into play you might ask?

Dairy’s sour cream-based dips have long been a favorite choice when getting
together and sharing a meal – whether simply dipping a potato chip in it or
topping it on your baked potato, people love these dips in a variety of ways.
AE
Dairy has 12 different, fun varieties, but I have always loved the dill
pickle version. The pickle flavor is on point!
For this recipe I stirred half of the container right into
the ground beef mixture. The flavor it makes these cheeseburger bites
incredible.
Look at how adorable they are!
After baking I topped these with shredded lettuce, chopped
dill pickles, tomatoes and more of AE Dairy’s
dill pickle dip. Such a fun two bite appetizer.
These can be served straight out of the oven or at room
temperature. And they look pretty on a platter!
I cannot wait to see your Cheeseburger Bites! Have an
appetizer night at home or bring them to your game day party. And bring extra Dill Pickle
Dip! Trust me, people will want to add an extra dollop to their plate.
