Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 12 wonton wrappers

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, and cream cheese. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated and the mixture is smooth.
  • Place a wonton wrapper into each cup of a 12-cup muffin tin, pressing down gently to form a cup shape. Fill each wonton cup with a spoonful of the chicken mixture and top with shredded cheddar cheese.

Serving

  • Bake in the preheated oven at 375°F for 10-12 minutes or until the wonton edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with your choice of dipping sauces.

Storage

  • If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F until crispy and warmed through.
