Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces won ton wrappers
- 0.5 pound ground spicy Italian sausage
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
- 1 unit nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Press one won ton wrapper into each muffin tin cup, making sure it forms a small bowl. For extra sturdiness, press a second wrapper slightly offset from the first in each cup.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground spicy Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it into small crumbles with a spatula, about 6-8 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes to the sausage, cooking for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the cream cheese until fully melted and combined with the sausage mixture.
Remove the skillet from the heat and mix in half of the shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, salt, and pepper.
Spoon approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons of the sausage mixture into each won ton cup.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the tops of the cups.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the won ton wrappers are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the cups cool for 5 minutes.
Carefully remove the won ton cups from the muffin tin and serve warm. Enjoy!
