Strawberry Cream Cheese Wontons


The Tasty Kitchen Blog featured a Nutella and Banana Wontons Recipe a while back.  The warm gooey inside contrasted with the crispy sugary outside made a very good treat (okay, okay, I actually made this for supper).  

I used plain old peanut butter instead of Nutella.  I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, so I got to thinking of other combinations that could be made and came up with strawberries and cream cheese, sprinkled with icing sugar:
  



Here is my version:

1 package of Wonton Wrappers
Canola Oil
1 package of cream cheese
Strawberries, sliced thinly
1 egg, beaten
Powdered Sugar

Line a cookie sheet with the wonton wrappers.  Place thin slices of cream cheese and strawberries in the center.   Wet two adjoining sides of the wonton square with the beaten egg.  Fold the square and press the seams together to seal the wonton wrapper.

Pour enough oil in a frying pan to cover the wonton wrappers.  Set the burner on high and heat the oil.  When the oil is hot, fry each side of the wonton wrapper, to a golden brown color.  Remove wontons and place them on a paper towel.  Sprinkle with icing sugar and let them cool a bit before biting in.
