Ingredients
  

Wonton Cups
  • 1 package (12-13 oz) wonton wrappers
  • 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach thawed and thoroughly squeezed dry
  • 14 ounces canned artichoke hearts drained and chopped
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Equipment

  • oven
  • 12-cup muffin tin
  • clean kitchen towel
  • large bowl

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. Ensure the thawed spinach is thoroughly dry by squeezing out all excess water using a clean kitchen towel.
Making the Filling
  1. In a large bowl, combine the squeezed spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Assembling and Baking
  1. Carefully press one wonton wrapper into each cup of the prepared muffin tin, molding it to fit the shape.
  2. Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of the spinach and artichoke mixture into each wonton cup, being careful not to overfill.
  3. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the wonton edges are golden brown and crispy, and the filling is hot and bubbly.
Serving
  1. Let the wonton cups cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them. Serve warm.

Notes

For best results, make sure to really squeeze out all the moisture from the spinach to prevent soggy wontons. These can be made ahead and reheated gently in the oven.
