Preparation
- Heat oven to 350°F. Line large cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper or foil; spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
- In large bowl, mix chicken, mozzarella cheese, 1/3 cup of the wing sauce and the ranch sauce.
- Cut tortillas in half. Spoon and spread about 1/4 cup chicken mixture over each tortilla half. Roll up each tortilla into a cone shape; arrange 8 cones evenly in a ring, cone tip facing in, on cookie sheet with 3-inch circle in center.
- In small bowl, mix butter with remaining 2 teaspoons wing sauce. Brush evenly over tops of cones in ring. Top with 1/2 cup of the cheddar cheese. Arrange remaining 8 cones in second layer on top of first layer of cones, filling any gaps. Brush cones with butter mixture, then top with remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese.
- Bake 11 to 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and filling is heated through. Top with green onions. Serve immediately, with more ranch sauce for dipping.
