Olive oil cooking spray

1 pound lean ground beef

1 pack (1-ounce) pot roast seasoning

1 egg, lightly beaten

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Toast the bread the day ahead. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Take 8 slices bread and cut out 32 circles using a 1-?-inch round pastry cutter or an empty, clean 6-ounce tomato paste can. Arrange disks on an unlined sheet pan, and spray lightly with olive oil. Toast rounds for 7 minutes. When cool, store in an airtight container.

To make the burgers, preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Mix ground beef, seasoning, egg and Worcestershire sauce in a large bowl. Form 1-inch meatballs using 1 tablespoon of meat mixture per ball. Arrange on a broiling pan, leaving meatballs an inch apart. Using index finger, gently poke holes in the middle of each meatball. Bake for 12 minutes. Turn temperature to broil and cook 5 minutes more. Let stand 7 minutes before transferring to toasts.

Gently fill each burger hole with ketchup or mustard. Serve warm. Makes 32 cocktail burgers.
