Sausage and cheese wonton cups are the ultimate appetizer made with ground sausage, shredded cheese and creamy ranch dressing baked inside a crispy wonton.

1PoundGround Sweet Italian Sausage
½CupCheddar Cheese, hand shredded
½CupMonterey Jack Cheese, hand shredded
¾CupRanch Dressing
Green Onion, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°
Add the wonton wrappers to each individual cup of a greased muffin tin and gently push them down. I just sprayed mine with a little cooking spray. 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.
Add the ground sausage to a large bowl. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and ranch dressing, also. Stir everything together until it’s evenly combined.
Add about 2-3 tablespoons of the filling into each of the wonton cups. You'll have to make a couple batches if you're doing this with one muffin tin. Feel free to load them all up if you have multiple.
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.
Garnish with green onion (optional) and carefully remove each of the wontons. Serve warm and enjoy!
