Fold 2 points together, brush with egg and pinch to seal. Continue shaping until all the filling has been used.
• Once vegetable oil is hot, carefully add a few of the wontons at a time and fry until golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate and continue frying the rest.
• To make the sauce, stir together the sour cream, garlic, salt, pepper and scallions. Set aside.
• Arrange the wontons onto a baking sheet, piling them up in the center. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bacon and bake in a 350 degree F oven for about 10 minutes, just to melt the cheese.
