Shrimp Cream Cheese Wonton Cups

Shrimp Cream Cheese Wonton Cups are a delightful appetizer offering a perfect balance of creamy, savoury, and crunchy textures in every bite.

I had made some shrimp toast the other day and had some mixture left over, so I decided to experiment with some appetizers. These shrimp cream cheese wonton cups were the result.
