To make the Ranch crema:

1. Pour the crema into a liquid measuring cup. Add the ranch seasoning and stir to combine.
2. Add up to 1 tablespoon of water to thin it out. If you need to set it aside, stir vigorously before using again.

To make the wonton cups:

1. Heat your oven to 350°F. Spray muffin pans liberally with cooking spray or brush with olive oil.
2. Lay the wonton wrappers out onto the muffin pan but don't push them into the holes yet. Spray the tops of the wrappers with cooking spray, then gently press them into the hole, taking care to push it out to the edges to fill the entire cup. If any parts of the wrapper fold over or poke out into the hole of the cup, just push them against the sides, and they will stick into place.
3. Bake the wontons for 8 minutes, turning the tray once. Let cool for a few minutes, and then pull them out of the pan to fill with the creamy corn and bacon. Turn the oven up to 375°F.

To make the filling:

1. Warm a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon. As the color darkens, turn the heat down so the bacon doesn't burn. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon looks close to being done. Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon and set it on a plate lined with paper towels.
2. Drain the bacon grease from the skillet and wipe it out with a paper towel. Bring the pan back up to medium high heat and add the onions. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are charred on the edges and look clearish.
3. Turn the heat off but leave the pan on the stove. Add the bacon, 2 cups of corn, pickled jalapeños, and garlic powder. Drop the cream cheese into the pan by the spoonful and stir to combine.  

To assemble the cups:

1. When the wonton cups are ready, fill with 1-2 tablespoons of the corn mixture. Top with a pinch of shredded cheese and a few more kernels of corn.
2. Set the wontons on a lined sheet pan and put them in the oven for 5 minutes or until the cheddar has melted.
3. Once the cheese has fully melted, arrange the wontons on a serving tray. After stirring the ranch crema again, drizzle it over the wonton cups. Alternatively, it can be served in a bowl alongside the cups. Garnish with chives.
