lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef

cup sloppy joe sauce (from 15-oz can)

can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dough sheet

slices American cheese

Pickle slices, if desired

Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 8 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray.

In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until no longer pink; drain. Add sloppy joe sauce; cook until heated through. Remove from heat; cool slightly.

On large cutting board, unroll dough sheet; cut into 8 squares with sharp knife or pizza cutter. Line each muffin cup by pressing 1 dough square in bottom and up side of cup. On same cutting board, cut cheese slices into quarters, and place one quarter in bottom of each dough-lined cup; divide sloppy joe mixture evenly into each cup, about 1/4 cup each. Top each with remaining quarter of cheese.

Bake 14 to 18 minutes or until dough is deep golden brown and filling is heated through. Cool in pan 5 minutes; using metal spatula, run around edge of each muffin cup to remove from pan. Serve with pickle slices.
