Makes 12 cups
For the base:
- 12 wonton wrappers
For the goodness:
- Your favorite mac & cheese – it was midnight, so in the interest of time, I used Annie’s, instead of starting from scratch
- 6 strips bacon, diced
- 6 slices of cheddar cheese, cut into quarters
Cookware:
- 12 hole cupcake pan
- medium sized sauce pan
- cake pan
- strainer
What to do:
- Preheat oven 350° F and bring water to boil in sauce pan.
- Cook that bacon in the oven until it’s nice and crispy. Dice it nice.
- Boil mac & cheese to your liking, strain and toss back in sauce pan.
- Take half of the bacon and mix with mac and cheese.
- Push one wonton wrapper into each cupcake hole – make sure to press firmly against walls of holes to maximize fill space.
- Bake wonton wrappers, until slightly browned on top corners and remove from oven.
- Lay a quarter piece of cheese on the bottom of each cup and fill with mac and cheese mix.
- Lay another quarter piece of cheese on top of mac and cheese mix and top with bacon.
- Bake cups for about 7 minutes or until cheese is melted, corners of wontons are browned and bacon is hissing “eat me” at you.
- Take tray out of oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
- Eat and enjoy your food coma.
