How to Make Taco Wonton Cups

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
• Spray a muffin tin with non-stick spray.
• Press a wonton wrapper into the bottom of each muffin space, leaving 4 corners going up the sides to form cups. 

• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 5 minutes, until cup corners are turning golden brown.
• Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Once cups are finished baking, move them onto the parchment paper.
• In a large skillet, cook ground beef until browned, chopping into small pieces.

• Once beef is browned, follow the directions on the taco seasoning pack to make the taco meat.
• Divide the beef mixture evenly among 18 wonton cups.

• Add a layer of shredded cheese to each wonton cup.

• Return cups to the oven for about 5 minutes, baking until the cheese is melted.
• When serving, garnish with a small dollop of sour cream, sliced green onions, chopped tomato, and any other taco toppings you prefer.
