Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Filling:
    • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
    • ¼ cup granulated sugar
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • ½ cup finely diced fresh strawberries
  • For the Wonton Bites:
    • 24 wonton wrappers
    • 1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
    • Vegetable oil (for frying)
  • Optional Toppings:
    • Powdered sugar, for dusting
    • Strawberry sauce or jam, for dipping

Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Fold in the diced strawberries.
2️⃣ Assemble the Wonton Bites: Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the cheesecake filling in the center of each wrapper. Brush the edges of the wonton wrapper with the beaten egg, then fold it into a triangle or desired shape, sealing the edges tightly to avoid leaks.
3️⃣ Heat the Oil: In a deep skillet or pot, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
4️⃣ Fry the Wonton Bites: Fry the wontons in small batches for 2–3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
5️⃣ Serve: Dust the wonton bites with powdered sugar and serve warm with strawberry sauce or jam on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Make sure the oil is at the right temperature; too hot will burn the wontons, and too cool will make them greasy.
  • For an extra twist, try adding a touch of lemon zest or cinnamon to the cheesecake filling.
  • These wonton bites are best served fresh but can be reheated in an air fryer for a few minutes to restore crispiness.
