These Sausage-Filled Stars can be assembled ahead of time and frozen. Simply freeze the filled cups on a baking sheet, then transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. To bake from frozen, add 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
Experiment with different types of cheese! Cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend of cheeses would all work well.
If you don't have ranch dressing on hand, you can substitute with mayonnaise or sour cream mixed with a packet of ranch seasoning.
