Description
This is a variation of sausage stars/sausage cup recipes that use wanton wrappers and ranch dressing. My version uses tostitos scoops (bowl shaped corn chips) and cream cheese for some of the ranch dressing. I made these for christmas eve and super bowl sunday, and they were a huge hit on both occasions! You can make the filling in advance and refrigerate until you are ready to assemble and bake. If i am taking these to a party, i fill the shells before i leave home and bake when i arrive at the party. They are also great with regular ranch dressing, but we prefer parmesan peppercorn flavor.
