(Have you figured out yet that I'm just using my blog for my personal bookmark folder so I can find all this in a pinch?)
I love to make these and bring them to parties because pretty much everyone loves shrimp. There's also the wow factor of the little wonton cups and let's face it--I take these to other people's houses so I can eat half the pan without anyone noticing. They're that good.
My mom introduced me to these, and they are a straight-up non-altered Pampered Chef recipe. Gotta love Pampered Chef... most of those sell-out-of-your-house-at-guilt-inducing-parties companies send me running for the hills, but darn if I don't actually use my mini muffin pan, egg slicer, garlic press, chopper, pizza stone, cookie scoop and server... drat, that's a lot. I still won't go to the parties because they set my inner introvert on fire, but I have many a PC gizmo and I am fond of the easy recipes.
So here it is, y'all.
Shrimp Wonton Cups
original recipe can be found here
Ingredients:
24 square wonton wrappers
1 tbsp butter, melted
10 oz shelled, deveined, cooked medium shrimp, divided (set 24 aside)
4 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
2 green onions with tops, finely chopped
1/3 cup grated carrot
4 oz shredded mozzarella cheese (about 1 cup)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly spray Deluxe Mini-Muffin Pan with nonstick cooking spray. Brush one side of wontons with butter. Press wontons, buttered side up, into wells of pan. Bake 8 minutes or until edges turn light golden brown. Remove pan from oven.
- Reserve 24 shrimp; chop remaining shrimp. In large bowl, whisk cream cheese, garlic and Worcestershire sauce until well blended. Add chopped shrimp, green onions, carrot and mozzarella cheese; mix well.
- Fill each wonton cup with about 1 tbsp of the cream cheese mixture; top with a reserved shrimp. Bake 5 minutes or until wontons are golden brown and filling is bubbly.
