Deep-Fried Strawberry Cheesecake Stuffed Wonton Bites sound absolutely delicious! Here's a quick recipe to make them:
Ingredients
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup strawberry jam (or fresh strawberries, diced)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 package wonton wrappers
Vegetable oil, for frying
Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Fresh strawberries, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, strawberry jam (or fresh diced strawberries), and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
2. Assemble the Wontons: Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface and add about a teaspoon of the cheesecake filling in the center. Dip your finger in water and run it along the edges of the wrapper to dampen it. Fold the wrapper over the filling to form a triangle, pressing firmly to seal the edges. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
3. Heat the Oil: In a deep skillet or pot, heat about 1–2 inches of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
4. Fry the Wontons: Carefully drop a few wontons at a time into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry each wonton for about 1–2 minutes per side, or until they’re golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
5. Serve and Garnish: Dust the fried wontons with powdered sugar for a sweet finish. Optionally, serve with fresh strawberries on the side.
Tips
Serve with a drizzle of chocolate sauce or a side of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
For a fruity twist, swap out strawberry jam with other flavors like raspberry or blueberry!
