Ingredients
Scale
Cream Cheese Filling:
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup diced fresh strawberries
Additional Ingredients:
- 24 wonton wrappers
- Small bowl of water (for sealing wrappers)
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Optional chocolate or strawberry sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in the diced strawberries.
- Fill and Seal Wonton Wrappers: Lay out the wonton wrappers and place about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese filling in the center of each. Wet the edges with water, fold into a triangle, and press to seal.
- Fry the Wonton Bites: Heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) in a skillet. Fry the wontons in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2–3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.
- Serve: Dust with powdered sugar and enjoy warm, optionally with dipping sauce.
Notes
- Ensure cream cheese is well softened for a smooth filling.
- For added flavor, consider incorporating a touch of lemon zest.
- Avoid overfilling the wontons to prevent bursting during frying.
- Best served fresh for optimal taste and texture.
