Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a mini muffin pan with cooking spray. Press one wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, then flute and ruffle the edges with your fingers to form crinkled cups.
  2. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp. In a bowl, mix the chicken, cream cheese, buffalo sauce, cheddar, mozzarella, ranch dressing, green onions, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Spoon the buffalo chicken filling into the baked wonton cups. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until hot and melted. In a small bowl, stir together crushed pretzels, melted butter, ranch seasoning, and smoked paprika.
  4. Transfer the cups to a serving tray. Drizzle with ranch dressing. Sprinkle with ranch pretzel crunch, green onions, and Buffalo Ranch Appetizer Dust. Serve warm.
    5. Bake the wonton cups before adding the filling so they stay crisp. Add the ranch drizzle, pretzel crunch, and Appetizer Dust right before serving. For a shortcut, use rotisserie chicken.
