Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 24 wonton wrappers
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp water
- 4 cups vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 2
Separate the wonton wrappers and place them on a clean, dry surface.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water together to create an egg wash.
Step 4
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each wonton wrapper.
Step 5
Brush the edges of the wonton wrapper with the egg wash using a pastry brush or your fingertip.
Step 6
Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle and press the edges firmly to seal. Make sure there are no gaps.
Step 7
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Make sure the oil is deep enough to submerge the wontons.
Step 8
Carefully place a few wontons at a time into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp.
Step 9
Remove the fried wontons from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 10
Repeat with the remaining wontons.
Step 11
Optional: Dust the fried wontons with powdered sugar for added sweetness.
Step 12
Serve warm and enjoy!
