These Ghost Mini Taco Pies are spooky-cute Halloween treats made with puff pastry or pie crust, filled with a savory taco mixture, and topped with sour cream ghosts. Perfect for fun Halloween finger foods and kid-friendly party snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup corn (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 roll refrigerated pie crust or puff pastry
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (plus extra for “ghosts”)
  • Candy eyeballs or mini chocolate chips (for ghost eyes)
  • Muffin tin

Instructions

  1. In a skillet, cook the ground beef until browned. Add taco seasoning and water, then stir in black beans and corn. Simmer for 5–6 minutes until thickened.
  2. Roll out the pie crust or puff pastry and cut into circles to fit into greased muffin tins. Press into the cups to form mini pie shells. Bake at 375°F for 8–10 minutes until lightly golden.
  3. Spoon the taco mixture into each baked crust. Top with shredded cheddar and diced red onion. Bake again for 5–7 minutes until the cheese is melted.
  4. Remove from oven and top with diced tomatoes and chopped cilantro. Add a dollop of sour cream on top of each pie.
  5. Pipe a swirl of sour cream on each mini pie to form a “ghost” shape. Add candy eyeballs or mini chocolate chips to complete the spooky faces.

Notes

  • You can use puff pastry or pie crust depending on your preference for flakiness or sturdiness.
  • Make sure to grease the muffin tin well to prevent sticking.
  • Let the taco filling cool slightly before adding to avoid soggy crusts.
  • Kids can help decorate the ghost faces for a fun Halloween activity.
