Ingredients
Scale
Sausage Filling
- 1 pound ground sausage
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
Other
- 24 wonton wrappers
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the wonton cups.
- Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until it is browned and fully cooked through. Drain any excess fat to keep the filling from being greasy.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage with cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, chopped green onions, and ranch dressing. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Prepare Muffin Tin: Lightly spray a mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Form Wonton Cups: Gently press one wonton wrapper into each cup of the mini muffin tin, shaping the edges to fit the cup correctly.
- Fill Wonton Cups: Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the sausage mixture into each wonton wrapper, taking care not to overfill to ensure even baking.
- Bake: Place the filled muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the wonton wrappers are golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the wonton cups cool slightly. Serve warm for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Drain excess fat from the cooked sausage to avoid soggy wonton cups.
- Use a mini muffin tin to ensure perfect bite-sized portions.
- Do not overfill the wonton wrappers to prevent spills during baking.
- Serve warm for optimal flavor and crispiness.
- You can substitute ranch dressing with sour cream or cream cheese for a different flavor profile.
