With just a few ingredients, these golden bites are perfect for parties, game nights, or anytime you’re craving Chinese takeout flavors.

Ingredients (Makes 20–25 wontons)

  • 1 package wonton wrappers
  • 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp soy sauce (optional for extra flavor)
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Small bowl of water (for sealing)

Instructions

1. Make the filling:
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, and soy sauce until smooth and well combined.

2. Fill the wontons:
Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Add 1 tsp of filling to the center. Dab edges with water, fold into a triangle or seal all corners to form a “flower” shape. Press edges firmly to seal.

3. Heat the oil:
Heat 2–3 inches of oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.

4. Fry the wontons:
Fry 4–5 wontons at a time until golden brown and crispy (about 2–3 minutes). Turn occasionally for even frying. Drain on paper towels.

5. Serve:
Serve hot with sweet chili sauce, duck sauce, or soy sauce for dipping.

Tips & Variations

  • Baked version: Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10–12 minutes for a lighter alternative. Brush with oil for crispiness.
  • Air fryer option: Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 6–8 minutes.
  • Add crab: Mix in 1/4 cup imitation crab for crab rangoon-style wontons.
  • Spice it up: Add a pinch of chili flakes or diced jalapeños to the filling.
  • Make ahead: Fill and freeze uncooked wontons on a tray, then store in a freezer bag for up to 2 months.

FAQs

Q: Can I use phyllo dough or egg roll wrappers instead?
A: Wonton wrappers are ideal for size and crispiness, but egg roll wrappers can be cut down as a substitute. Phyllo is not recommended.

A: Yes! Freeze them uncooked, then fry or bake directly from frozen. Just add 1–2 minutes extra cook time.

Q: What dipping sauces go best with cream cheese wontons?
A: Sweet chili sauce, plum sauce, or a homemade soy-vinegar dip are perfect.
