Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup seedless raspberry preserves
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 24 square wonton wrappers
  • 1 large egg , beaten with 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, raspberry preserves, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
  • Lay out 6 wonton wrappers at a time on a clean, dry work surface.
  • Place approximately 2 teaspoons of the raspberry cream cheese mixture into the center of each wrapper.
  • Using a pastry brush or fingertip, apply the egg wash to the outer edges of the wrapper.
  • Fold the wrapper diagonally to create a triangle, pressing firmly along the edges to remove air and create a tight seal.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  • Carefully drop 4-5 wontons into the hot oil. Fry for 1 to 2 minutes, turning once, until the shells are golden brown and blistered.
  • Use a slotted spoon to remove the wontons and drain them on a wire rack set over paper towels.
  • Dust with powdered sugar while still warm and serve immediately.
