Description
These golden little bites remind me of summer fairs and cozy nights at Grandma’s—when cheesecake met carnival treats in one delicious moment. Crispy on the outside, creamy in the center, and topped with sweet strawberry jam, they’re the kind of treat that disappears faster than you can say “just one more.” Gather your ingredients and whip up a batch to surprise someone you love.
Ingredients
Cheesecake Filling:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Additional Ingredients:
- Strawberry jam or preserves (for topping/filling)
- Wonton wrappers
- Oil, for frying
- Optional: fresh strawberries, for garnish
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each wonton wrapper. Top with a dab of strawberry jam.
- Moisten edges with water, fold into triangles or pouches, and seal tightly.
- Heat oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Fry wontons in batches until golden brown, about 1–2 minutes per side.
- Drain on paper towels. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Perfect for parties, sharing, or sneaking straight from the plate—these bites are love at first crunch.
