Deep-Fried Strawberry Cheesecake Stuffed Wonton Bites
Ingredients
- 20 wonton wrappers
- 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup (30g) powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (120g) strawberry jam
- 1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
- Oil for frying (e.g., vegetable or canola oil)
- Fresh strawberries, sliced (for garnish)
- Whipped cream (for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling:
- In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the wontons:
- Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 1 tsp of the cream cheese mixture in the center, then top with 1/2 tsp of strawberry jam.
- Brush the edges of the wrapper with the beaten egg. Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal tightly. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Heat the oil:
- In a deep skillet or pot, heat about 2 inches of oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the right temperature.
- Fry the wontons:
- Carefully place a few wontons into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Serve:
- Garnish with sliced fresh strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips
- Baking option: For a lighter version, brush the wontons with melted butter and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Other fillings: Use blueberry, raspberry, or chocolate spread instead of strawberry jam.
- Make ahead: Assemble the wontons ahead of time and refrigerate them until ready to fry.
These Deep-Fried Strawberry Cheesecake Stuffed Wonton Bites are a delightful dessert that’s crispy, creamy, and bursting with flavor. Perfect for any occasion! 🍓🍰✨
