Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup shredded cooked chicken breast
  • 4 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
  • 1/3 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 12 wonton wrappers wonton wrappers
  • scallions chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • Muffin Tin
  • Mixing Bowl

  • Measuring Cups

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth, then add the shredded chicken and buffalo sauce; stir until evenly combined.
  3. Fold in the grated cheddar cheese until distributed throughout the mixture.
  4. Press one wonton wrapper into each cup of a muffin tin, forming a small cup.
  5. Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the wonton cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the wonton edges are golden and the filling is heated through.
  7. Let the cups cool in the pan briefly, then remove and garnish with chopped scallions before serving.

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • Room-temperature cream cheese mixes more smoothly.
  • Fill wonton cups evenly for uniform baking.
  • Watch the edges so they don't overbrown.
