Preparation Steps

• In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth.
• Stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
• Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture into the center of the wrapper.
• Dip your finger in water and moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper.
• Fold the wonton wrapper in half to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal. You can also fold it into a purse shape or any desired shape.
• Repeat with the remaining wrappers and cream cheese filling.
• In a large skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).
• Carefully add the wontons to the hot oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
• Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
• Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
• Serve warm. They are delicious on their own or with a dipping sauce like raspberry or chocolate sauce.
