Girl, let me tell you about this absolutely divine deep-fried creation that’s been making everyone in my household go crazy! These Crispy Sweet Cream Cheese Wontons are literally what dreams are made of – crunchy on the outside, creamy and sweet on the inside, and totally addictive. Trust me, you’ll want to make a double batch!
I discovered this recipe during one of my late-night cooking experiments (you know, when the sweet tooth hits hard), and honey, it’s been a game-changer! These little pockets of happiness are perfect for afternoon tea, dessert, or whenever you need a pick-me-up.
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 1 package wonton wrappers
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1/3 cup powdered sugar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– A pinch of cinnamon
– Vegetable oil for frying
– Optional: strawberry jam for dipping
Now, let’s get cooking! 💃
1. First, let that cream cheese soften – nobody wants lumpy filling! Mix it with powdered sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon until smooth and creamy. I like to use an electric mixer because, honestly, who has time for arm workouts?
1. Lay out your wonton wrappers like little diamonds. Place about a teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper. Don’t get too excited and overfill them – trust me, I learned this the hard way!

1. Wet the edges of the wonton with water, fold them into triangles, and press to seal. Make sure they’re sealed tight – we don’t want any cream cheese explosions!
1. Heat your oil to 350°F. If you don’t have a thermometer, drop a small piece of wonton wrapper in – if it sizzles and floats, you’re good to go!
1. Fry these babies in small batches for about 1-2 minutes each side until golden brown. They cook quick, so keep your eyes on them! Nobody likes burnt wontons, sweetie.
1. Drain on paper towels and dust with powdered sugar while still warm.
The result? Perfectly crispy, creamy, sweet little packages that’ll have everyone begging for the recipe! I love serving these with a side of strawberry jam for dipping, but they’re absolutely fantastic on their own too.
Pro tip: If you’re feeling fancy, drizzle some honey or chocolate sauce over them. Go wild, girl – life’s too short for boring desserts!

P.S. These are best enjoyed fresh and hot, but between us, I’ve been known to sneak a few cold ones from the kitchen at midnight. No judgment here! 😉
