Mini Chili Beef Pies
As you know if you’ve followed my recipes that I love to entertain. Cooking for people is my passion and these Mini Chili Beef Pies are a great recipe to feed a crowd be it at a party or a picnic! They always go down a treat.
Start by making chili sauce. While the chili cooks, take the pastry and cut out circles with a cookie cutter. Line a mini muffin tray with pastry and bake slightly. As the pastry bakes, cook some potatoes in boiling water. Once cooked, drain the potatoes and combine with sour cream and chives to make the mashed potato topping. Assemble the pies by spooning chili into the pastry cases and top with mash before baking until golden.
To make Mini Chili Beef Pies, you will need the following ingredients:

Not my thing to be honest it's okay but the meatloaf cake was so much more fancy than this.
Crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside the perfect texture and size.
Perfect for a huge house party or even a small gathering since it's a grab and go snack no mess or napkins even needed.
Great recipe easy to make and affordable too thanks for sharing it.
Didn't add any cinnamon to mine and used so parmesan cheese for the topping.
