• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

• Finely chop chipotle peppers and add peppers, adobo sauce, and egg to meat mixture. Mix well. Roll into 1 1/2-inch meatballs.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 24 mini muffin cups with non-stick cooking spray. Separate dough into 4 rectangles; press perforations to seal. Cut each rectangle into 6 squares. Press each square in bottom and up side of mini muffin cup. Bake 6 minutes. Remove from oven. Using handle of wooden spoon, immediately make 1 1/2-inch indentation in center of each cup. Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until tender. Stir in chipotle chili and the adobo sauce, meatballs, and 2 tablespoons water. Cover; reduce heat to low. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally or until thoroughly heated. Remove meatballs from skillet. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of the sauce into each cup. Top each with one meatball half, cut side up. Cut each piece string cheese lengthwise in half; cut each half crosswise into thirds. Top each meatball with 1 piece of string cheese. Bake 6 to 10 minutes longer or until edges are golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cups. Top each meatball cup with 1 avocado slice; secure with wooden toothpick. Serve warm.

Stir gently, carefully loosening the meatballs from the pan and mixing them into the sauce. Return to the oven and bake until the meatballs are tender and the sauce thickens, about 40 more minutes.
