Equipment
- 1 rubber spatula
- (1) 12-cup standard sized muffin tin
Ingredients
- (1) 8 oz block cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup celery chopped
- 1/2 cup hot sauce I like Franks Red hot
- 1 cup shredded chicken 1-2 small breasts
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese Mozzarella is ok too!
- 12 wonton wrappers I like Nasoya brand
Instructions
- *Set your cream cheese on the counter in advance to let it completely soften and get to room temperature!
- Start by boiling and shredding your chicken breasts, or just shredding your rotisserie chicken.
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, chopped celery, hot sauce, shredded chicken and shredded cheese. Mix well!
- Spray a 12 cup muffin pan with cooking spray, then press wonton wrappers into each cavity. Spray the wontons again to ensure the side of each wonton wrapper will crisp in the oven!
- Evenly spoon chicken mixture among the wonton wrappers.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until the buffalo chicken filling has settled into the wontons and the edges of the wontons are golden brown.
- *Optionally sprinkle with green onions or blue cheese crumbles after baking.
