Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Biscuit Cups: Grease a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or butter. Gently press each biscuit from the refrigerated dough into the bottom and up the sides of the muffin cups, creating a sturdy biscuit cup.
Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked macaroni, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped bacon, BBQ sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir the ingredients until they are evenly distributed and well-mixed.
Fill the Biscuit Cups: Spoon the mac and cheese mixture into each prepared biscuit cup, filling them generously.
Bake to Perfection: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuit cups are golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
Garnish and Serve: Remove the biscuit cups from the oven and let them cool slightly. Sprinkle the freshly chopped green onions over the tops as a final garnish. Serve the BBQ Bacon Mac & Cheese Stuffed Biscuit Cups warm and enjoy!
