Instructions
- Special equipment: Two 24-cup mini-muffin tins
- In a medium bowl, mix together the strawberries, sugar, vanilla and salt. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, whip the cream and mascarpone together until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the cookies and berries with any collected juices. Leave a few streaks if desired.
- Spoon the mixture into the mini wonton cups and top with more crushed cookies and chopped strawberries if desired.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray two mini-muffin tins with cooking spray.
- Brush the wonton wrappers all over with oil. Place each in a muffin-tin cup and gently press down so that it forms a cup. The wrapper will be slightly pleated and stick up out of the cup. Sprinkle with the sugar and bake until golden brown and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the wrappers from the tin and let cool.
