Crispy Tater Tot Chili Cups combine the best of both worlds: crunchy, golden tater tots and hearty, flavorful chili. These bite-sized appetizers are perfect for any gathering, from casual game day snacks to festive party treats. With a delicious blend of savory chili and crispy tater tots, topped with melty cheese, these cups will be a crowd favorite in no time!
Loaded Tater Tot Chili Cups are a fun and unexpected twist on traditional game day appetizers. While nachos and wings are always popular, these chili cups bring something unique to the table with their crispy texture and bold flavors.
Helpful Tips
- Pre-bake the Tater Tots: For a perfect crispy base, bake the tater tots until golden before adding chili and cheese to ensure they stay crunchy.
- Customize the Chili: You can use your favorite chili recipe or keep it simple with canned chili to save time—either way, it’s sure to be delicious!
- Top with Extras: Add sour cream, green onions, or jalapeños for extra flavor and a little kick, making each cup customizable to your guests’ tastes.
