Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package wonton wrappers
  • Cooking spray to prevent sticking
  • 1 cup frozen spinach (thawed and well-strained)
  • 1 can canned artichoke hearts (drained and finely chopped)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves minced garlic

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. Arrange the wonton wrappers in a muffin pan and spray them lightly with cooking spray.
  3. Bake the wonton cups for 5 minutes, then remove from the oven.
  4. Combine the filling ingredients in a medium bowl until creamy.
  5. Divide the spinach mixture evenly among the baked wonton cups.
  6. Return the filled cups to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes.

Notes

  • Strain Spinach Well: Ensure the thawed spinach is extremely well-strained to avoid soggy wontons.
  • Customize Cup Size: Trim the wonton wrappers or use mini muffin tins for bite-sized delights.
  • Prep Ahead: Prepare the filling in advance and fill the wonton cups just before serving.
  • Use Quality Ingredients: Opt for quality canned artichokes and fresh garlic for best flavor.
  • Keep an Eye on Baking: Watch closely as wonton cups can quickly go from golden brown to overdone.
  • Top with Extras: Consider topping with sautéed shrimp or fresh herbs for a gourmet touch.
