Either is correct depending on the sentence:

What happened at the party? What's happened at the party.

What's happened to the cookies? What happened to the cookies.

~Note: This is because the word "what's" is a contraction of "what has", so the sentence really means, "What has happened to the cookies?" That's a different tense than past tense, but either can be used.

Both "What happened" and "What's happened" are correct, but "What happened" is more commonly used in formal writing or when asking about a past event that has just occurred. "What's happened" is more casual and is used in spoken language to ask about a recent event or situation.
