Preheat the oven to 325F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Brush one side of the wonton wrappers with butter. Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Dip the buttered side of the wrappers into the cinnamon-sugar, then place the wrappers, sugared side up, into the muffin tins. Bake until golden brown, 7-9 minutes. Remove and allow to cool completely.
In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and orange zest together. Divide the mixture evenly between the cooled wonton cups.
Place the strawberries on top of the cream, then garnish with mint. Serve immediately.
Notes
*The filled cups are best served immediately, but can be refrigerated for a few hours in advance if needed. Unfilled cups can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container.
