Ingredients

  • 1 lb mild Italian sausage
  • 1 jalapeno stem and seeds removed, diced
  • ⅓ cup cranberry sauce
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 24 wonton wrappers
  • diced green onions

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium skillet, add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking into small pieces as it cooks.
  • Add the jalapeno and cook another 3-4 minutes, to soften.
  • Add the cranberry sauce and cream cheese and stir until combined. Stir in shredded cheese. The shredded cheese doesn't need to be completely melted.
  • Remove from the heat.
  • Spray a mini muffin pan with cooking spray.
  • Gently press the wonton wrappers into the mini muffin pan. I like to pinch the wrapper together in a sort of flower shape and then press it into the pan, pressing it into place, to avoid tearing the wrappers.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes to slightly brown the wrappers.
  • Add a heaping tablespoon of the cranberry sausage mixture into each wonton cup. You may have more than needed for 24 wontons. If you have leftover wontons, just make another batch!
  • Bake for 7-8 more minutes, until the wontons are browned.
  • Top with diced green onions and serve.
  • Enjoy!
