Ingredients
  

1 package (12 oz) of wonton wrappers

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup mini pepperoni slices

1/2 cup pizza sauce, plus extra for serving

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing the muffin pan

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Muffin Tin: Lightly grease a standard muffin tin with cooking spray or olive oil to prevent sticking.

      Assemble the Wonton Cups:

        - Carefully press a wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, molding it to fit snugly against the bottom and sides.

          - If you like a crispy texture, you may want to layer two wonton wrappers in each cup for added stability.

            Add Pizza Sauce: Spoon about 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce into the bottom of each wonton cup.

              Layer the Cheese and Toppings:

                - Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce in each cup.

                  - Add a few mini pepperoni slices on top of the cheese.

                    - Sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning and a little grated Parmesan on top of the pepperoni (if using).

                      Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the wonton wrappers are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

                        Cool and Serve: Remove the wonton cups from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Use a fork to gently lift them out. Serve warm with additional pizza sauce on the side for dipping and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.

                          Enjoy: Delight in your delicious Mini Pepperoni Pizza Wonton Cups as an appetizer, party snack, or a fun twist on pizza night!
