Chocolate Chip Wontons - compliments of Wonton Warrior


Wonton Warrior has been a busy person, dictating to us, what kind of wontons to make and what other tricks there are for the use of wontons.  For example, sprinkle with a  little cinnamon and sugar and bake and you have delicate cookies.


When he said the word, chocolate, both Bizzy and I jumped for joy.  Chocolate can't be beat.  I found this recipe on Yummily and it has the most endearing name - Ridiculously Easy 4-Ingredient Chocolate Chip Wontons.  I made half the recipe and  should have made more.

I served these at the family barbecue and the first reaction of people was "Chocolate in a wonton?"  That makes sense since, wontons are more often found in soup than as a dessert.  I made them with Tofutti cream cheese but I recommend that you use real cream cheese.

Here are your four ingredients.

Chocolate Chip Wontons  half a recipe


4 ounces whipped cream cheese
1 1/2  tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup of chocolate chips
15 wonton wrappers

(plus water to seal wontons and powdered sugar to sprinkle on wontons, if  you choose)

Method:

Heat oil in pot or deep sided skillet.

Combine cream cheese and sugar and beat until smooth.  (Since I use whipped cream cheese, it is easy to do and I do it by hand.  The Tofutti cream cheese also needed no beaters.)  Stir in chocolate chips. 


Lay out about 6 wontons and put a tablespoon of mixture in the middle of each wrapper.  (For the round wontons, that is too much and it would ooze out.  I used more like a teaspoon.)


Wet edges of wontons with water and seal tightly.   Do a good job here.


Drop wontons into the hot oil (very carefully) and cook for about a minute until both sides are golden.  Drain on paper towels.


Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.  Enjoy!

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

Image
It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi...

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I ...
