Can you really keep the wonton cups up to one week after you bake them? I asked my recruiter if I could make them tonight for my open house on Wednesday and she said that they are really tempermental and would get soggy really easy...I don't know if she thought I was going to fill them tonight also but I wasn't...just wanted to bake them for Wednesday...I am having the guests fill them. Let me know if they will hold up till Wednesday night...I'm going grocery shopping after work tonight!
 
Yes. You can make them tonight. Then put them in a gallon size ziploc bag until you are ready to fill them on Wednesday. I don't think I'd do it a whole week ahead though.
 
Maybe your director thought you were planning to fill them.
 
Just be careful with them. They'll keep, but some of mine broke when I put them in the zip lock bags.
 
Store them in your trifle bowl- thats what I do!!
 
I've held them for 3-4 days with no problem - but like someone said, be careful so you don't break them.
 
What kind of filling are you using?

I am going to make the filling that is used on the Touchdown Taco Dip for a taco filling, one made similar but instead of southwest seasoning, I am using the dill mix and then I am going to use the topping for the strawberry pizza. Different toppings for each one...the fillings will be in the Easy Accent Decorator (I will have three) with maybe some sour cream in the Decorator Bottles... Are you familiar with the strawberry pizza recipe?

Here is the recipe for the strawberry pizza:
How about making this pink and yummy Berry Patch Pizza? Bake a brownie
base or a sugar cookie base on your Round Stone and cool completely. For
topping, combine 8 oz softened cream cheese, 1 T sugar, 2 c cool whip. Take 1 pt fresh strawberries, clean and slice, then chop enough to measure 1/2 c and add to cream cheese mixture...spread on cooled crust. Cut into serving pieces. Then, top pizza with rest of sliced strawberries and 1/2 c
fresh raspberries and 1/2 c fresh blueberries(or more of red fruit if left
off!) Grate vanilla chips on top with Cheese Grater.
 
I think I am going to try those wonton cups. This weekend I made the basic cup with cream cheese. Then I filled them with the cool creamy fondue. Then chopped some snickers for the tops. They were delicious!!!

I made the wonton cups last night...very easy. I just cut them in half to form a triangle and cut the points off. 8 minutes was perfect in my oven!
