Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204&# 194;°C).
-
In a small bowl, combine the fat-free refried beans, finely chopped onions, and Tabasco sauce. Mix well and set aside.
-
In a large bowl, mix the Bisquick baking mix and sour cream until a soft dough forms. Beat vigorously for about 20 strokes to ensure the dough is smooth.
-
Turn the dough out onto a floured cloth-covered board. Gently smooth the dough into a ball and knead it about 20 times.
-
Roll the dough out to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
-
Using a floured 2-inch cutter, cut out rounds from the dough.
-
Place the dough rounds on an ungreased cookie sheet.
-
Using floured hands, press a deep indentation about 1 1/2 inches in diameter into the center of each dough round to create a cup shape.
-
Fill each indentation with a generous teaspoon of the bean mixture, spreading it within the indentation.
-
Top each filled round with chopped green chiles and a sprinkle of Monterey Jack cheese.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until the dough is light brown and the cheese is melted, about 10 to 12 minutes.
-
Serve warm as appetizers or a light main course.
