Cream Cheese Won Tons Recipes

CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

Steps:

• Make the wonton filling by combining the cream cheese, sugar, salt, and scallions.
• Assemble the wontons. Take each wrapper, and dampen the outer edges with a thin layer of water. Place a teaspoon of the cream cheese filling in the middle, and fold in half into a triangle. Bring the two corners on the long side of the triangle together, and seal with another dab of water. Continue until all the wontons are assembled.
• Heat a couple inches of vegetable oil in a small pot until it reaches 375 degrees F. Fry the wontons in batches--about 2 minutes per batch--until golden brown. Definitely use a small pot for this and fry in multiple batches; you'll use much less oil!
• Make the dipping sauce by combining all the sauce ingredients, and serve with the wontons.

CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

Steps:

• In a small bowl add the cream cheese, green onions, garlic powder and salt and beat until creamy.
• Lay a wonton wrapper on a non stick surface. With your finger wet the edges of the wonton wrapper. Add about a teaspoon of the cream cheese filling and bring up each corner creating a star and seal tightly.
• In a medium sized saucepan add 1/2 inch of oil along the sides. Heat to medium high heat. Add the wontons to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set on a paper towel lined plate. Serve with sweet and sour sauce if desired.

CRABBY CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large, heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese, imitation crabmeat, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and green onions.
• Place approximately 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper.
• Place egg whites in a small bowl. Using the fingers, spread egg white over two edges of the wonton wrappers. Fold into triangles and press to seal edges.
• In small batches, deep fry the wontons until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve warm.

BAKED CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Lay wonton wrappers on prepared baking sheet. Place 1 teaspoon cream cheese in the center of each wonton wrapper.
• Lightly brush edges of wonton wrappers with water and fold each wrapper in half to form a triangle. Press edges to seal. Fold the tips of each triangle up together so that they meet in above the center of the wonton and press tips together to seal. Spray assembled wontons with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until wontons are crispy and golden and the cream cheese is melted, 5 to 7 minutes.

CREAMY CHEESE WONTONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix cream cheese, feta cheese, carrot, garlic powder, egg yolk, basil, and parsley together in a bowl.
• Place a wonton wrapper on a work surface and wet the corners of the wrapper with a moist finger. Spoon 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of the wrapper; fold wrapper over the filling, sealing the edges shut. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling. Place wontons on a baking sheet and brush with soy sauce.
• Bake in the preheated oven until corners of wontons are brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

GARLICKY CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

Steps:

• Take cold cream cheese and mix with garlic to incorporate.
• Place in fridge and chill for 15 minutes (I found using cold cream cheese makes them easier to fill).
• Place 1 tsp filling in each wonton wrapper.
• Wet each square edge with the egg wash.
• Fold into triangles.
• Make sure to get all the air out when sealing or they will puff up to much in the hot oil.
• Freeze or fry in 450°F oil 6 at a time til golden brown.
• Serve with various dipping sauces.

BLUEBERRY CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

Steps:

• Cut 4 ounce block of cream cheese in half, then in half again to create 4 pieces. Further cut each piece in half again so you have 8 equal pieces total. Set aside.
• Working with 6 wonton wrappers at a time, separate them out onto a clean work surface. Divide one of the cream cheese pieces into 6 pieces and place a piece in the middle of each wonton wrapper. Place 1 teaspoon of blueberry pie filling over the top of the cream cheese. Do not overfill, as the mixture may ooze out.
• Use your finger to lightly wet the 4 edges of each wonton wrapper. Gently fold in half diagonally to make a triangle, then bring up the remaining two corners so all corners join together. Try not to leave excess air in the wonton, which can cause them to burst. Press seams together to ensure a tight seal. Set wontons aside, covered in a damp paper towel, while you finish making the remaining wontons.
• Preheat the air fryer to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C). Spray the inner basket with cooking spray and place as many wontons in basket as will fit, without overcrowding. Lightly mist wontons with cooking spray.
• Air-fry for 5 minutes. Remove to a cooling rack and dust with powdered sugar. Let cool while you cook the remaining wontons in batches. Best served slightly warm or at room temperature.
