Baking

Filling the Cups
- Remove the baked wonton cups from the muffin tin and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Spoon the seafood mixture into each wonton cup.
Serving
- Place the filled cups on a large serving plate or tray and add a little extra fresh dill on top if desired.

Notes
Store leftover seafood filling in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Baked wonton cups can be kept at room temperature for up to 1 day. Fill them just before serving for the best crisp texture. If the cups lose their crispness, warm them in a 350°F oven for 3 to 5 minutes before filling.
