Baked Buffalo Chicken Wonton Cups
Description
This recipe starts by baking wonton wrappers in a muffin pan until lightly golden and crisp. A filling is prepared by whisking together softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, and buffalo sauce, then folding in shredded cooked chicken, cheddar cheese, green onions, and garlic powder. The filling is spooned into the baked wonton cups, topped with crumbled blue cheese, and baked again to heat through and melt the cheese. The combination delivers a creamy, spicy, and tangy filling encased in a crunchy wonton cup, providing textural contrast and layers of flavor.
These cups serve well as party appetizers, snacks, or finger food for casual gatherings. Garnishing with extra green onions or additional buffalo sauce allows customization of heat and freshness. Baking the wontons twice ensures crispiness is maintained, while the filling is rich and warm. These can be prepared ahead and reheated briefly before serving.
