Jalapeño popper wontons cups are crispy golden bites filled with creamy cheese, bacon, and spicy jalapeños for the perfect crunchy, cheesy appetizer.

Jalapeño Popper Wonton Cups

These Jalapeño popper wonton cups are the ultimate bite-sized appetizer that you’ve just gotta make for your next party.

It’s packet with richness from the cream cheese, sharpness from the cheddar, lots of smoky bacon, and just the right amount of kick of heat all baked in a crispy wonton shell.

Now doesn’t they sound good? I sure know it does and trust me, they taste just as good as they sound.

They’re easy to make, fun to eat, and guaranteed to disappear fast at any party or get together. It’s always one of the first things to go.

These are perfect for football Sundays or any casual get-together that you can think of. Everyone loves a nice grab n go appetizer.

My friends and family also love my Spinach And Artichoke Wonton Cups so be sure to give them a try, too.

Bring these to your next party, tailgate or just make them for a casual movie night at home and watch how fast they get eaten up.

I really hope you give this recipe a try. If you do, I know you’ll love it just as much as my family and I do.

Jalapeño Popper Wonton Cups Variations

I like this recipe for wonton cups made just the way it is, but here are some ways to change it up if his like to.

  • Bacon- You can relapse the bacon for diced up sausage or ham. Feel free to make your own bacon instead of using bacon bits, too.
  • Cheese- Use any kind of cheese that you’d like for this. Just be sure to shred it your self because it will melt much better that way.
  • Cream Cheese- If you’d like to add some extra layer of flavor, try flavored cream cheese in stead of plain.

    This looks delicious, but I can't eat jalapeños. Could I replace them with anything else or just leave them out?
    Thank you
