Delicious Jalapeño Popper dip in a two bite cup! This is one of my favorite wonton appetizers! These have pretty much all of the staples to create a perfect bite! Creamy, cheesy, spicy and crispy!
I used canned jalapenos because they’re already softened. You definitely can use fresh jalapenos but they’re best if they’re roasted first as this recipe doesn’t cook long enough to soften the jalapenos.
Items You’ll Need for This Recipe
* Jalapeno Peppers * Wonton Wrappers * Cream Cheese *
- 36 wonton wrappers
- cooking spray
- 6 oz diced jalapenos or to taste
- 1 8 oz package cream cheese softened
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
- 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese divided
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
-
Preheat oven to 350.
-
Spray each wonton wrapper on both sides and place into a mini muffin tin. Bake 7 minutes.
-
Mix remaining ingredients in a small bowl, reserving 1/4 cup cheese for topping.
-
Fill each wonton cup with the cream cheese mixture. Bake and additional 12-14 minutes or until cheese is melted and wonton is browned.
-
Cool for about 3 minutes and serve warm.

I added bacon to the cream cheese mix, baked for 8min. Topoed off with extra cheese and more bacon cooked for 2 more min. Let cool They are AMAZING!
Glad you loved them DeLayne!
These are excellent!! And yes, I did leave the seeds in it. We like it hot!
Thank you for a jalapeno popper recipe that didn’t add bacon. We’re lacto/ovo vegetarians.
Glad to hear you loved this recipe Ruth!
I made these for a party and they were a hit. Followed recipe except instead of brushing butter on shell I just sprayed pan with PAM and they came out perfect.
What do you spray the wonton wrapper with?
It says spray both sides of wonton wrapper. What do you spray with?
can you make these the night before? and can they be served cold as well?
These are best served warm.
Can you make the cup early and just fill it when you’re ready?
Yes, that would work well.
I made these for my sisters birthday this past April and they were amazing! They were such a hit my boyfriend wants me to make them for his birthday also. I was wondering, is it possible to make the filling the day before and set in the fridge until morning? Thank you!
So glad you loved them! You can certainly make the filling ahead of time.
Do you brush both sides of the wontons with the melted butter?
Just the side that became the “outside”. :)
Has anyone actually tried them? And are they good?
Yes, it says to reserve 1/4 cup cheddar, and then to top with remaining (reserved) cheese
It seems that a step is missing: The receipe doesn’t say what to do with the remaining 1/4 cup cheddar cheese.
step 4. says top with remaining cheese
Read step 4! lol
Looks like you sprinkle a little on the top, that’s why it’s only 1/4 cup. But you can mix it int he mixture as well, I think for presentation it should be sprinkled on the top though. Hope that helps
