Instructions

In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered icing sugar, vanilla extract and greek yogurt until smooth and well-combined.

Lay a few wontons out on a cutting board and place a wet paper towel over the remaining wonton wrappers to keep them from drying out.

Scoop 1 teaspoon of the cheesecake filling and 1 teaspoon of the cherry pie filling onto the center of each wonton wrapper.

Brush the edges of each wonton wrapper with a bit of water and then folder over into a triangle shape, pressing to seal and remove all air from the wonton.

Repeat with all wontons wrappers.

Place the cooking oil in a heavy pan or dutch oven and heat to 300F.

Fry the wontons 3-4 at a time until lightly golden, flipping over halfway through cooking, about 3 minutes each batch.

Repeat until all wontons are fried.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Wonton Wrapper Mastery 🤲
Keep wonton wrappers covered with a damp towel while working to prevent them from drying out and cracking during preparation.
Cream Cheese Smoothing Technique 🧀
Bring cream cheese to room temperature and mix with Greek yogurt using a hand mixer to create an ultra-smooth, lump-free filling.
Sealing Secrets 💨
Use a small amount of water on the wonton wrapper edges and press firmly with a fork to create a perfect seal that prevents filling leakage during frying.
Oil Temperature Control 🌡️
Maintain oil at 350°F for optimal frying - too low and wontons will be greasy, too high and they'll burn before cooking through.
Cherry Filling Pro Tip 🍒
Drain excess liquid from cherry pie filling to prevent soggy wontons and ensure a concentrated, rich cherry flavor in each bite.
