My family loves Crock Pot Crack Chicken. It tastes amazing and is so easy to make. What’s not to love?
It’s versatile too. When I needed a hearty appetizer, I immediately thought of doing something with Crack Chicken flavors.
These cups made with wonton wrappers are filled with a whole lot of goodness!
Crack Wontons
Crack Wontons uses ingredients you love and probably already have in your pantry. I used rotisserie chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and Ranch dressing mix and filled wonton cups with a scoop of this deliciousness. I completed the recipe with more cheddar, panko, and green onions on top.
Then you’ll bake until they’re heated through and the cheese is nice and melted and bubbly.
Crack Wontons
- I like to use a mixture of Colby cheese and cheddar cheese. Cheddar cheese is oily. Using a combination keeps these from being so greasy. You may use all cheddar, or whatever cheese you have on hand.
- Leftover chicken is great for this recipe. However, to make prep time easier if you don’t have leftover chicken, purchase a rotisserie chicken. I would get a plain or mesquite flavor.
- Garlic powder and red pepper flakes added more flavor and heat to the recipe.
- You will have wonton wrappers left over from this recipe. Try making Sloppy Joe Wonton Cups, Bacon Cream Cheese Stuffed Wontons, Layered Sweet and Sour Asian Dip with Fried Wonton Dippers, or Easy Pot Stickers.

- I like to make 20 appetizers with this amount of mixer. You can make more or less depending on how full you fill the wontons.

- Press the wontons into the bottom of the muffin pan and up the sides slightly. This will be the crust.
