Berry Napoleons With Sugared Wonton Wrappers Recipes

MANDARIN NAPOLEONS WITH SUGARED WONTON WRAPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Arrange the wonton wrappers on the sheet and spray them with cooking spray. Sprinkle them evenly with the granulated sugar, and then bake until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and arrange 4 of the wontons on a serving platter or individual dessert dishes. Top each one with 2 tablespoons of the whipped topping and then one-eighth of the mandarin sections. Top each with a second wonton wrapper. Repeat the layers (whipped topping, mandarin oranges, wonton wrapper). Sift the confectioners' sugar over the top layer and serve.

CHOCOLATE-BERRY NAPOLEONS

Steps:

• Roll out 1 puff pastry sheet into a 10-inch square; cut into 2 1/2-by-5-inch rectangles (8 total). Sandwich between 2 unlined rimmed baking sheets and bake at 400 degrees F until golden, 30 minutes. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Cool. Cook 1/3 cup milk, 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon cornstarch in a small skillet over medium heat, whisking, until thick. Stir in 2 ounces chopped semisweet chocolate; cool. Fold in 1 1/2 cups whipped cream. To assemble, layer 2 pastry rectangles with the chocolate cream and raspberries. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

WONTON NAPOLEONS

Steps:

• Pour enough oil into small saucepan to come 1/4 inch up sides of pan. Heat oil over medium-low heat. Using tongs and working with 1 wonton at a time, submerge wontons into hot oil, frying until golden brown, about 15 seconds for first side and 10 seconds for second side. Transfer fried wontons to paper towels to drain (wontons will continue to color slightly as they cool). Sprinkle fried wontons with cinnamon. Cool completely.
• To Assemble:
• Place 4 fried wontons on work surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of whipped topping over each. Arrange 1 sliced strawberry and 2 to 3 raspberries over whipped topping on each wonton. Spoon 1 tablespoon of whipped topping over berries on each wonton. Top with another fried wonton. Repeat layering 2 more times. Spoon dollops of remaining whipped topping atop each cake stack. Garnish napoleons with remaining strawberries and raspberries, and mint sprigs (optional). Serve immediately.

• Whisk the soy sauce, orange juice, lime juice, lemon juice, sesame oil, ginger, Fresno pepper and scallions together in a medium bowl. Add the tuna and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours.
