Ingredients
- 24 pieces wonton wrappers
- 1 pound ground sausage
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 0.75 cup ranch dressing
- 2 tablespoons diced green onions (optional)
- None as needed cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Lightly grease a standard-sized muffin tin with cooking spray.
Step 3
Press one wonton wrapper into each cup of the muffin tin to form a 'cup' shape. Ensure the edges of the wrappers slightly extend over the sides.
Step 4
Bake the wonton wrappers in the oven for 5 minutes, just until they begin to crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside.
Step 5
While the wonton wrappers are baking, cook the ground sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Drain excess grease and remove from heat.
Step 6
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and ranch dressing. Mix until evenly combined.
Step 7
Spoon the sausage mixture evenly into the pre-baked wonton cups.
Step 8
Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 9
Remove the sausage cups from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before carefully removing them from the muffin tin.
Step 10
Garnish with diced green onions (optional) and serve warm. Enjoy!
