Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup buffalo wing sauce
  • ¼ cup ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 23 green onions, sliced
  • 2430 wonton wrappers
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • Extra green onions for garnish (optional)
  • Crumbled blue cheese for garnish (optional)
  • Extra buffalo sauce for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 24-cup mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine softened cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, and ranch dressing. Mix until smooth.
  3. Fold in shredded chicken, ¾ cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and sliced green onions. Mix until evenly distributed.
  4. Gently press one wonton wrapper into each cup of the mini muffin tin to form a bowl shape.
  5. Spoon about 1 heaping tablespoon of the chicken mixture into each wrapper. Sprinkle remaining ¼ cup of cheddar cheese on top.
  6. Brush the exposed edges of the wonton wrappers with melted butter.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until wonton edges are deep golden brown and filling is bubbly.
  8. Let cool in the pan for 3-5 minutes, then gently lift out with a small spoon or offset spatula.
  9. Garnish with extra green onions and a drizzle of buffalo sauce, if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

Don’t overfill the wonton wrappers to prevent bursting. Brushing with butter is essential for crispiness. For make-ahead, prepare filling up to 2 days in advance. To reheat, bake at 350°F for 5-7 minutes to restore crispness.
