SPICY SAUSAGE WON TON CUPS
Appetizers to liven up any party! Spicy sausage, cheese olives, and peppers. What's there not to like? I found this in my Christmas with Southern Living 2003. It's a beautiful cookbook with lots of great recipes and ideas! I haven't tried it yet but I think that these could be made ahead of time and kept in the freezer until they were heated up again.

HIDDEN VALLEY RANCH SAUSAGE STARS
These are easy to make you can do the wonton wraps the day or so ahead and have the sausage mixture made in advance then just 5 minutes before serving you fill the wraps and pop them in the oven. For a lighter exterior I prefer to use Spring Roll wraps. Use your regular pork breakfast sausage. if you wish use Italian sausage or bratwurst

SAUSAGE-FILLED STARS
This is a fabulous appetizer; it does take a little time to prepare, but the taste is well worth it. If you want to freeze them for later use, they turn out just as good; just pop them in the freezer after filling the cups and then bake a bit longer then in the original recipe.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Sausage: Opt for a spicy sausage with a bold flavor, such as Italian sausage or chorizo, to ensure the wonton stars pack a punch.
- Sauté the Sausage: Before adding the sausage to the wonton filling, sauté it until it's cooked through and slightly crispy. This adds depth of flavor and texture.
- Use Fresh Vegetables: Incorporate fresh vegetables like carrots, celery, and onion into the filling to enhance its flavor and nutritional value.
- Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season the filling generously with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. This will elevate the overall flavor of the wonton stars.
- Fold Carefully: When folding the wonton wrappers, make sure to seal them tightly to prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
- Fry in Hot Oil: Heat the oil to a high temperature before frying the wonton stars. This helps create a crispy outer layer while keeping the filling moist and juicy.
- Serve with Dipping Sauce: Offer a flavorful dipping sauce, such as soy sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or sriracha, to complement the spicy sausage wonton stars.
