    Ingredients

    Scale

    For the wonton cups:

    • 24 wonton wrappers
    • 4 tablespoons (57g) butter, melted

    Filling Ingredients:

    • 8oz (227g) cream cheese, softened
    • ½ cup (113g) sour cream
    • 4oz can (or 1-2 fresh) jalapenos diced, or to taste
    • 3 tablespoons green onions, sliced
    • ½ cup (57g) cheddar cheese, shredded
    • ½ cup (57g) mozzarella cheese, shredded
    • ¼ cup (28g) crumbled bacon, about 3-4 slices

    To garnish:

    • Crumbled bacon, sliced green onions

    Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 350°
    2. Brush the wonton wrappers on both sides with melted butter. Press into muffin pans. Bake until slightly golden, about 6-8 minutes.
    3. Mix the filling ingredients and spoon evenly into the baked wonton cups. Top with shredded cheddar cheese.

    Notes

    To make in advance:  bake the wonton cups until golden. Let cool and store in an airtight container. Mix the filling ingredients and store in the refrigerator. Fill the wonton cups shortly before baking for the crispiest cups.

    To reheat: place the wonton cups on a baking sheet and heat in a 300° F oven until warmed through. You can also reheat them in the microwave, but they won’t be as crispy.

      I made the these for a birthday party and they were a hit. I couldn't find wonton wrappers so I used frozen puff pastry shells. Delicious and so easy to make!

      Made these for a birthday party used the hot canned peppers. Didn't turn out hot at all. Recipe is hard to understand wasn't sure if cheddar cheese went in mix and on top or what. Same with the mozzarella. Turned out very nice looking but not spicy at all.

        Hi Marcia, There's 1/2 cup of cheddar and 1/2 cup mozzarella in the filling ingredients and an additional 1/2 cup of cheddar sprinkled on top as a topping. I find fresh jalapeños to be hotter than the canned ones. Hope this helps!

      Hi, so excited to try this recipe out this weekend for an early Christmas celebration! Do we add the bacon & green onion in with the filling or save that for garnish only?

      Are these intended to be served warm or can they be served at room temperature?

        Hi Suzanne! I serve them warm but room temperature is fine, too. Because they contain dairy, I wouldn't leave them at room temperature for a very long time.
