My Thoughts Before Starting

Hello to everyone who entered my kitchen, Friends! Today, we will learn to cook something special, something that unites simplicity, speed, and an unimaginably divine taste. I want to assure you, Friends, that you can do it, even if you don’t know how to cook or don’t have a sweet tooth. Baking, in particular, is often considered a complex and long process, but I want to make cooking (and eating) as accessible as possible for you. And this recipe for sweet cream cheese wontons is the embodiment of my culinary philosophy: minimal effort, maximum effect. Remember, the kitchen is for experiments, for laughter, and for failures. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes; the main thing is to have fun!

To help you out from the very start, I want to share a few tips that I use in the kitchen. First, good products make the dish. It doesn’t mean that you have to buy the most expensive cream cheese or fruit; the main thing is that it is of good quality. I always prefer Philadelphia when buying cream cheese, and for wontons, any brand will do. Second, have all your ingredients and equipment ready before you start cooking. Sounds familiar? It is a simple rule, which in French is called “mise en place”, and which means “everything in its place”. It will help you avoid confusion and make the whole process smooth and even fun. Third, don’t be afraid to experiment! It may sound crazy, especially if you’re just starting in the kitchen. But this recipe is a great starting point for your own variations. Perhaps you’ll put a little lemon zest instead of vanilla? Or use a different kind of sugar? It’s your kitchen, your rules!

Ingredients

Wonton wrappers (wonton wrappers dessert) – 1 package (approx. 50 pieces)

Cream cheese (cream cheese frosting) – 225 g, at room temperature

Powdered sugar – 1/2 cup

Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon

Fresh fruit (e.g., strawberries, raspberries, blueberries) – for garnish

Vegetable oil for frying – approx. 1 liter

Cooking is an art, and every movement matters. See how easy it is to fold a wonton and seal in the cheesy surprise. It’s the moment when magic happens right before your eyes.

Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Mix at low speed with a mixer until smooth and fluffy, with no lumps. Make sure the cheese is at room temperature, which will facilitate mixing.

Prepare the wontons. Put a small teaspoon of the prepared cheese mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper.

Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water (preferably with a finger) and fold the wonton, forming a triangle, rectangle or purse. Pinch the edges well so that the filling does not leak out during frying.

In a deep pot or pan, heat the oil to about 180 °C (350 °F). To check if it is ready, drop a small piece of dough – it should immediately start to fry.

Fry the wontons in small portions, 3-4 pieces at a time, until golden and crispy. This should take about 2-3 minutes on each side.

Take the wontons out of the oil and place them on a plate lined with a paper towel to drain the excess grease.

Serve the wontons warm, dusted with additional powdered sugar and garnished with fresh fruit. These cream cheese wontons are great on their own or with a fruit dip (fruit dip with cream cheese).

My Tips

Ingredient Substitutions: Instead of powdered sugar, you can use maple syrup or honey, but keep in mind that the filling will be more liquid. Instead of cream cheese, you can use ricotta, but the taste and consistency will be different. Cream cheese has a specific, smooth texture that is difficult to replace.

Wonton filling recipes: You can add finely chopped fruit to the filling, for example strawberries or peaches. A little grated lemon or lime zest also works great to give it a refreshing note.

Watch out for: Don’t overfill the wontons with the filling, otherwise, it can burst during frying. It’s better to use less than more. Also, don’t fry too many wontons at once, this will reduce the temperature of the oil, and the wontons will be soaked with grease.

recipes using wonton wrappers: Wonton wrappers are a great base for culinary experiments! You can make savory purses with vegetables and meat, or even delicious small sweet dumplings.

Quick Dinner: You can cook a delicious wonton soup in 15 minutes if you have frozen wontons (easy wont soup with frozen wontons) at home. Just boil them in broth and add your favorite vegetables.

This is what the final result looks like! Crispy, golden wontons ready to be eaten. Dusted with powdered sugar, with a side of fruit dip – a true paradise for the palate!

FAQ

Can I use a different cheese? Yes, you can use ricotta or mascarpone. But remember that the filling will have a different taste and consistency. Cream cheese has a specific, smooth texture that is difficult to replace.

How do I store the finished wontons? Best served warm. But if you have leftovers, you can keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days and then reheat them in the oven to restore crispiness.

Can I bake the wontons instead of frying them? Yes, that’s a great alternative! Place the wontons on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, lightly spray with oil and bake in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes, until golden. They will be less crispy and less fatty, but healthier.
