Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 8 oz softened cream cheese
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Assembly & Frying

  • 20 wonton wrappers
  • Vegetable oil (enough for 2-inch depth frying)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, finely chopped strawberries, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth with small chunks of fruit remaining.
  2. Assemble the Sandwiches: Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about one tablespoon of filling in the center of half the wrappers. Moisten the edges with water, then place a second wrapper on top. Press firmly to seal the edges and remove any air bubbles.
  3. Heat the Oil: Pour vegetable oil into a deep skillet or pot to about two inches deep. Heat over medium heat until the oil reaches 350°F (175°C), ideal for frying.
  4. Fry the Sandwiches: Carefully add a few sandwiches to the hot oil at a time. Fry each side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  5. Add Finishing Touches: While still warm, dust the sandwiches generously with powdered sugar. Serve immediately to enjoy the perfect contrast of creamy filling and crispy exterior.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and juiciness.
  • Avoid overfilling the wrappers to prevent bursting during frying.
  • Seal the edges well with water to avoid leaks.
  • Maintain the oil temperature at 350°F (175°C) for optimal frying results.
  • Drain fried sandwiches on paper towels to remove excess oil for a lighter, crispier texture.
