If these aren’t a must-have at your Super Bowl party, then nothing is. I’ve covered all the essentials: creamy cheese sauce with just a touch of heat, hearty black beans, tangy diced tomatoes and cilantro, fresh scallions, and crispy bacon. Imagine all these flavors coming together in the perfect bite (or two bites perhaps). No more soggy nachos where you worry about getting the topping-less chips; every Loaded Nacho Cup is filled to the brim with cheese and toppings.

Ingredients

- olive oil, for brushing
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

How To Make loaded nacho cups

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a mini muffin tin with nonstick spray.

Step 2

Lightly brush wonton wrappers with oil then press into tin, shaping them to the inside of the tin so they form cups. It doesn’t have to be perfect.
Step 3

Bake 10 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 4

Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Step 5

Add garlic and whisk in flour until free of lumps. Immediately pour in cream, continuously whisking, until smooth.
Step 6

Cover and let simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes. If it starts to boil, turn heat down.
Step 7

Whisk in the cheeses until completely melted.
Step 8

Turn off heat and fold in beans and salt.
Step 9

Spoon a generous tablespoon of sauce into each baked cup so that it’s full.
Step 10

Top each cup with some tomatoes, bacon, scallions, and cilantro leaves.
Step 11

I recommend leaving bacon off half for vegetarians and non-bacon eaters at your party.
Step 12

Serve immediately.
