Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 1 (8 oz) can Artichoke Hearts, drained and chopped
- 1/2 cup Frozen Spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1/2 cup Ranch Dressing
- 2 oz Cream Cheese, softened
Wonton Cups
- 24 Wonton Wrappers
- Oil, for brushing muffin tin
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare muffin tin: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly brush a 12-cup muffin tin with oil to prevent sticking.
- Shape wonton cups: Line each muffin cup with two wonton wrappers, staggering them to create a star shape for an attractive presentation.
- Pre-bake wonton cups: Bake the empty wonton cups for 5 minutes until they are lightly golden and crisp. Remove from oven to cool slightly.
- Prepare filling: In a medium bowl, combine the chopped artichoke hearts, thawed and squeezed-dry spinach, Ranch dressing, and softened cream cheese. Mix well until creamy and evenly blended.
- Fill wonton cups: Spoon the spinach artichoke mixture evenly into each pre-baked wonton cup, filling them generously but not overflowing.
- Final bake: Return the filled wonton cups to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the filling is hot and bubbly, and the wonton edges turn a deeper golden brown. Serve warm for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Make sure to squeeze out as much water as possible from the spinach to avoid soggy filling.
- Use softened cream cheese for easier mixing and a smoother filling texture.
- You can substitute Ranch dressing with other creamy dressings like Caesar or a garlic aioli for different flavor profiles.
- Ensure wonton cups are baked lightly before filling to keep them crispy.
- Serve immediately for the best crispy texture; leftovers can be reheated but may lose some crispness.
