Strawberry Jalapeno Cream Cheese Wontons
Looking to combine something sweet with something spicy, try these Strawberry Jalapeno Cream Cheese Wontons.
Ingredients
- Wonton wrappers
- 2 Tablespoons Smucker's Strawberry Jalapeno Fruit & Honey Spread
- 1 block cream cheese
- Coconut oil
- 1/2 cup water
Instructions
- Mix together 1 package of cream cheese and Smuckers Strawberry Jalapeno Fruit & Honey Spread. Be sure and give it a good taste; you might want to add more Strawberry Jalapeno Fruit & Honey Spread. Totally up to you at this point.
- Grab you a wonton wrapper and lay it on the counter and add 1/2 spoonful of cream cheese mixture. Once you get better at folding the wontons, you'll be able to add a bit more. Be sure to keep the wontons in the package covered because they tend to try out quickly. I just toss my dish towel on top after I get each wonton wrapper
- Dip your finger in water and wet the edge of the wonton wrapper on all four sides. Now fold your wonton wrapper in half with the cream cheese mixture in the center so it forms a little triangle. Work out any air bubbles and push ends together.
- Now push the two sides of the wonton together just a little bit so that the center pushes up, as shown in the above image.
- Dip your finger in the water and wet both corner sides of the triangle. Gently pull them together and press firmly so they seal together.
- The center of your wonton should stick out a bit and look sort of like a little hat.
- First warm coconut oil in your pan, then place one wonton in for testing. Once you put the wonton in the oil, it should immediately start sizzling and float to the top. Be sure to move them around a bit so they brown evenly. You can cook more than one at a time; I just like to test the first one to make sure the grease is nice and hot.
- Once you notice they are starting to brown, remove them from the oil (typically finished cooking in a minute or less) and set on a plate covered with a paper towel to drain off any grease.
