These sausage and cheese wonton cups really are the ultimate party appetizer.

This recipe is always a crowd pleaser and that’s a great thing because it makes a lot. You’ll get about 30 of these delicious bites.

It’s a must have at most of our family parties. We even serve this for holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas and they are the first to go.

I love how easy they are to make, too. They are almost effortless to put together. So, if you’re looking for something to whip up last minute, this is it!

The most difficult part of this recipe is just keeping an eye on those wontons. They burn so fast so be sure to check on them.

After that, it’s smooth sailing. I’m telling you, this appetizer may sound simple, but the flavors go together perfectly.

You definitely need to make my Jalapeño Popper Wonton Cups and Spinach And Artichoke Wonton Cups while you’re at it. They’re both awesome appetizers, too.

I 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.

Sausage And Cheese Wonton Cups Variations

I like these wonton cups made just the way they are, but here are some ways to change them up if you’d like to.

• Sausage- Any kind of sausage like breakfast, sweet or hot would all be ok to use here.
• Cheese- Use any kind of cheese that you prefer. Just be sure to shred it yourself because if will melt much better that way.

Sausage And Cheese Wonton Cups Ingredients

• Wontons
• Mills Ground Italian Sausage
• Cheddar Cheese, hand shredded
• Monterey Jack Cheese, hand shredded
• Ranch Dressing
• Green Onion, chopped (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°

First, add the wonton wrappers to each individual cup of a greased muffin tin and gently push them down.

Now, add them to the center rack of the oven and let them lightly toast up for 5 minutes.

While those are toasting, add the ground sausage to a large skillet over medium high heat and break it into small pieces as it browns. Drain the fat.

Next, add the ground sausage to a large bowl. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and ranch dressing.

Then, stir everything together until it’s evenly combined.

Now, add about 2-3 tablespoons of the filling into each of the wonton cups.

Next, place them into the center rack of the oven for about 5-10 minutes or until the center is hot and the wontons are crispy. Please be sure to keep an eye on them because they can burn fast.

Then, garnish with green onion (optional) and carefully remove each of the wontons. Serve warm and enjoy!
