Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated mozzarella cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 36 wonton wrappers
  • Olive oil cooking spray

Equipment

  • Muffin tin (12-cup)
  • Mixing bowls
  • Cheese grater
  • Garlic press (optional)
  • measuring cups and spoons
  • Cookie scoop (optional)
  • Kitchen towel or cheesecloth
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly coat a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil cooking spray.
  3. Place the thawed spinach in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much excess water as possible.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the squeezed spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes (if using).
  5. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Gently press one wonton wrapper into each muffin cup.
  7. Layer another wonton wrapper on top, rotating it slightly to create a star shape.
  8. Spoon the spinach and artichoke filling into each wonton cup, filling them almost to the top.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the wonton wrappers are golden brown and crispy and the filling is heated through and bubbly.
  10. Let the cups cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them.
  11. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

Don't overfill the wonton cups to prevent soggy wrappers. Watch the browning of the wrappers and tent with foil if needed. The wonton cups can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for a few hours before baking. For a spicier flavor, add cayenne pepper to the filling or top with hot sauce. Get creative with toppings like extra Parmesan cheese, chopped green onions, or paprika. Store leftover wonton cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes or in the microwave.
