Gather Your Ingredients for Spinach-Artichoke Wonton Cups

• 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
• 1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
• 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 30 wonton wrappers
• Cooking spray

Simple Steps to Make Delicious Spinach-Artichoke Wonton Cups

Step 1: First things first, get that oven preheating to 375°F (190°C). Then, grab your mini muffin tin – you know, the little one with 24 cups. Give each cup a good spritz with cooking spray so nothing sticks later. Trust me, this is a game-changer for easy cleanup!

Step 2: In a medium bowl, toss together your thawed and *thoroughly* squeezed dry spinach, the chopped artichoke hearts, that yummy Monterey Jack cheese, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, minced garlic clove, black pepper, and salt. Mix it all up until it’s just one creamy, dreamy dip. Oh, the smell already!

Step 3: Now for the fun part! Take your wonton wrappers and gently press one into each cup of your prepared muffin tin. You want to make a little cup shape, letting the edges come up the sides. Don’t worry if they overlap a *little* bit; it just adds to the charm and holds all that delicious filling.

Pro Tip: If you want these to be extra crispy, and who doesn’t, give those wonton wrappers a quick brush with some melted butter or a little olive oil before you press them into the tin. It makes such a difference!

Step 4: Spoon that glorious spinach and artichoke mixture into each little wonton cup. Fill them up, but don’t pack them *too* crazy tight. You want them to bake evenly.

Step 5: Pop that whole tin into your preheated oven. Bake for about 12-15 minutes. You’re looking for the edges of those wonton wrappers to turn a beautiful golden brown and the filling to get all bubbly and hot. That’s how you know they’re ready!

Step 6: Carefully take the muffin tin out of the oven. Let them sit for a few minutes; they’ll be super hot! Then, just gently ease them out of the tin. Serve them warm and watch them disappear. For more inspiration on delicious bites, check out my Pinterest board!

What to Serve with Your Spinach-Artichoke Wonton Cups

These little cups are pretty perfect on their own, right? But if you want to make them part of a bigger spread, I’ve got you covered!

A simple side salad with a bright vinaigrette always cuts through the richness of the creamy dip beautifully. Think of a light lemon or balsamic dressing!

Crusty baguette slices are fantastic for anyone who wants to scoop up any extra gooey filling that might escape. It’s like a little flavor bonus!

Fresh veggie sticks like carrots, celery, or bell peppers give a nice, cool crunch that balances the warm, cheesy wonton cups.

Storing and Reheating Your Spinach-Artichoke Wonton Cups

Got leftovers? Lucky you! Store any uneaten Spinach-Artichoke Wonton Cups in an airtight container in the fridge. They’ll stay tasty for about 3 to 4 days. Just make sure they’re completely cooled before you seal them up!

Now, here’s the secret to getting them almost as good as fresh: skip the microwave! Seriously, it makes them soggy. Instead, pop them back into a preheated oven (around 350°F or 175°C) for about 5-8 minutes. You want them warmed through and the wonton edges nicely crisped up again. This little trick makes all the difference!

These are also AMAZING for meal prep. You can bake them ahead, let them cool, and store them. Then, just reheat a few whenever that craving hits. So easy!
