Wonton Cups

• 12 wonton wrappers
• Cooking spray

Spinach-Artichoke Filling

• 1/2 of a 10-oz. package frozen spinach, thawed and very well-strained
• 1 (8-oz.) can artichoke hearts, drained and finely chopped
• 1/3 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 2 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the wonton cups.
2. Prepare Wonton Cups: Arrange the wonton wrappers into the cups of a standard 12-cup muffin pan so that each wrapper lines a cup, then lightly spray them with cooking spray. Bake for 5 minutes until they start to crisp, then remove and set aside.
3. Make the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the finely chopped artichoke hearts, well-drained thawed spinach, mayonnaise, sour cream, room-temperature cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated.
4. Fill Wonton Cups: Evenly spoon the spinach-artichoke mixture into each pre-baked wonton cup.
5. Bake the Filled Cups: Return the filled muffin pan to the oven and bake for an additional 10 to 12 minutes, or until the filling is warmed through and the wonton cups are golden brown and crispy.

Notes

• Be sure to squeeze out as much water as possible from the thawed spinach to prevent a soggy filling.
• Room temperature cream cheese mixes more smoothly with other ingredients.
• Use a small spoon or cookie scoop to evenly distribute the filling for uniform cups.
• These cups can be made ahead and reheated in the oven before serving.
• For added flavor, sprinkle a little extra Parmesan on top before the final bake.
• Cooking spray helps achieve a crisp texture on the wonton wrappers.
