Description

Delicious Crab Rangoon Wonton Cups combining creamy crab and cheese filling baked in crisp wonton wrappers, perfect for appetizers or party snacks.


Ingredients

Scale

Crab Rangoon Filling

  • 1 cup crab meat (imitation or canned lump crab meat, drained very well)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature)
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 2 cloves garlic (finely minced)
  • 4 green onions (thinly sliced, white and green parts)
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese

Wonton Cups

  • 24 wonton wrappers
  • Cooking spray (or cooking oil of choice)

For Serving

  • 1 green onion (thinly sliced, for garnish)
  • Thai Sweet Chili Sauce (for dipping)
  • Spicy Mayo (for dipping)


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Muffin Tin: Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 24-count mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or brush with cooking oil of choice.
  2. Form and Bake Wonton Cups: Press one wonton wrapper into each muffin tin space. Spray or brush the wonton wrappers with cooking spray or oil. Bake until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  3. Warm Cream Cheese if Needed: If cream cheese is not at room temperature, microwave on a microwave-safe plate for 10 seconds until slightly softened.
  4. Make the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine crab meat, cream cheese, sour cream, garlic, green onions, soy sauce, sugar, and mozzarella cheese. Mix until evenly combined.
  5. Fill Wonton Cups and Bake: Spoon a heaping tablespoon of filling into each baked wonton cup. Cover tray with foil and bake for 12 minutes until filling is warmed through and bubbly.
  6. Remove and Cool: Immediately remove wonton cups from muffin tin and transfer to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to keep cups crispy.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Garnish each cup with sliced green onions. Serve with Thai Sweet Chili Sauce and Spicy Mayo for dipping. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Wonton wrappers can be found refrigerated near tofu and salad dressings at grocery stores. Egg roll or spring roll wrappers can be substituted if needed.
  • If you lack a 24-count mini muffin tin, use a regular 12-count muffin tin placing two wonton wrappers per cup offsetting corners to avoid overlap. Use 2 tablespoons of filling per cup to make 12 larger cups.
  • Watch wonton cups closely while baking to prevent burning as oven temperatures may vary.
