For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a dollop of sour cream or guacamole after baking. Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite taco toppings, such as diced tomatoes, onions, or jalapeños. These mini taco cups are best served immediately while the wonton wrappers are still crispy.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Generously spray a 24-cup mini muffin tin with cooking spray to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until fully browned and crumbly, approximately 5-7 minutes. Drain off any excess grease. Stir in the salsa and taco seasoning, ensuring the beef is evenly coated. (10 minutes)
03
StepGently press a wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, forming a small shell. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the seasoned taco beef into each wonton cup. Top with approximately 1 tablespoon of the shredded Mexican cheese blend. (10 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven until the wonton wrappers are beautifully browned and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 12-14 minutes. (14 minutes)
