These baked crab rangoons are quick and easy to prepare and make a unique and tasty appetizer. Serve them on New Year's Eve, a game night, or before a holiday meal. The crab mixture is delicious, creamy, and full of crab flavor. Baking the wonton wrappers helps cut down on the fat, yet they still come out crispy. If you like them extra crispy, we suggest baking the wrappers a few minutes longer. YUM!! Almost as good as deep-fried!!! I happened to serve these alongside a soup this time... but these make a wonderful appetizer or just a snack! You can easily half this recipe.Enjoy!

Ingredients :
- 2 tablespoon(s) butter
- melted
- 24 - wonton wrappers
- 1 cup(s) flaked real or imitation crabmeat
- 8 ounce(s) cream cheese
- softened
- 1/2 cup(s) mayo
- I like the olive oil kind
- 2 tablespoon(s) finely chopped sweet onion
- 1/4 cup(s) chopped fresh chives or 2 Tbsp dried chives**
- 2 teaspoon(s) lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) sea salt
- pinch(es) black pepper
- - sweet and sour sauce
- optional
Intructions :
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush the melted butter onto one side of the wonton wrappers and gently press each one
- butter side up
- into the cup of a mini muffin pan
- overlapping the edges. Bake 5-6 minutes
- until the edges just start to brown.
- In a medium bowl
- mix together the remaining ingredients and spoon into the baked wonton shells. I like to use my 1 cookie scooper and fill it to heaping. Bake again for 6-7 minutes.Remove cups to a serving platter and serve alone or with a warmed sweet and sour sauce of your choice. (I like La Choy Sweet and Sour Sauce best. To me
- it 'most' closely resembles the ones I get at restaurants.)
- **If using dried chives
- I like to mix the cream cheese mixture up and allow it to rest at least 1/2 hour before using
- to give the chives time to hydrate.
