Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375° F. Grease a muffin pan with non stick cooking spray.
- Brush one side of each wonton wrapper with olive oil. Place two wrappers oil side up into each muffin tin hole.
- Bake for 5 minutes until the wontons begin to lightly brown.
- In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon bits, jalapenos, green onion, and garlic powder together until well combined.
- Spoon 2 tablespoons of cheese filling into each wonton cup.
- Return the wonton cups to the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Garish with a slice of jalapeno or sliced green onions.
Notes
- These wonton cups are best enjoyed on the day they are made but they can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Keep in mind they will lose some of their crunch.
- Wonton wrappers are available near tofu in most grocery stores.
- You can use one wrapper per well if you prefer but two will give the cups more structure and more crunch.
- Make sure the cream cheese it’s fully softened so it mixes smoothly.
- Swap half of the cream cheese with light sour cream or greek yogurt.
- Use Colby jack or pepper jack cheese instead of cheddar cheese. Or a mixture of cheeses.
- Freshly shredded cheese melts more smoothly than store bought pre-shredded but either will work.
- Leave out the garlic powder if desired.
- For spicier cups, leave the jalapeno seeds. For less spice, remove the seeds before mincing.
