How to Make Spinach and Artichoke Dip Phyllo Cups:
Making these scrumptious phyllo cups is a breeze! The best part is that you can make it ahead of time, saving you time and stress on the day of your party.
Frozen chopped spinach works great for this recipe, but you need to thaw it and drain it.
In a medium bowl, combine the spinach, artichokes, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, sour cream, garlic, and salt, then mix together.
If you’re making it ahead of time, you can cover the dip and put it in the fridge until you are ready to bake the phyllo cups.
Once you’re ready to bake them, simply add a small spoonful to each phyllo shell and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake them for 9-11 minutes at 325 degrees F. You want the shell to be golden, the dip to be heated through, and the cheese melted.
Tips for Serving:
If you want to make them ahead of time, keep the filling and phyllo cups separate and assemble them closer to serving time.
Additionally, consider adding a garnish on top, such as a sprinkle of grated Parmesan or a drizzle of olive oil, to enhance the presentation.
Finally, you can provide small serving utensils or toothpicks for easy and mess-free enjoyment.
