Crispy skull-shaped homemade tortillas filled with taco meat, black beans, corn, and tomatoes. Serve with a side of sour cream or guacamole for Halloween or the Day of the Dead.
Slowly pour in the water stirring as you go until the dough comes together. Add at least ¾ of a cup of the water then only add any remaining water as needed.
Knead the dough on a flour-dusted cutting board until the dough is no longer sticky and comes together in a cohesive ball then cover the dough and set aside for 10-20 minutes.
Heat half of the oil in a large skillet set over high heat.
Add half of the ground sirloin and cook until browned.
Remove from skillet and add the remaining oil then brown the remaining meat.
Add the other meat back into the pan and stir in the taco seasoning and water.
Bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until most of the water has evaporated.
Drape the dough over one skull in a 6 cavity non-stick pan allowing the dough to form the skull shape.
Fill with ⅙th of the taco meat.
Sprinkle on ⅙th of the cheddar cheese, black beans, corn, and tomatoes or your favorite burrito filling.
Fold the dough over the filling, cutting off any excess dough and pinching the seams together.
Whisk together the egg and water then brush the top of the dough with egg wash.
Repeat filling all 6 skulls.
Bake for 24-26 minutes until the tops of the dough turn lightly golden brown.
Remove from oven and set pan on a cooling rack for a few minutes then turn out the burrito skulls onto the cooling rack.
Serve with a side of sour cream, guacamole, or salsa.
These are best if served after they are baked. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in a 350-degree Fahrenheit oven for about 10 minutes until warmed through.
