Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Vegetable oil, for frying
24 wonton wrappers
12 small squares chocolate, such as semisweet or dark
1 large egg, beaten
Confectioners' sugar, for topping
Deep-fry thermometer

Steps:

  • Add 3 inches of vegetable oil to a pot set over medium-low heat. Attach the deep-fry thermometer to the pot. Line a plate with paper towels and set it aside.
  • Arrange 12 of the wonton wrappers on your work surface then place a square piece of chocolate in the center of each wonton.

SWEET WONTON PILLOWS

For the lunar new year a colleague brought me some wonton that her Mother-in-law had made. At first bite I knew I wanted the recipe. She only knew the Chinese name of the wontons so I was not able to find the recipe on line. I was so happy I found this recipe which comes very close. Don't be afraid of the mint leaf; it gives it a bit of contrast. From Martin Yan.
