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!
