Ingredients

32 - Wonton Wrappers
½ cup - Cream Cheese
1 ½ cups - Powdered Sugar
2 tablespoons - Greek Yogurt or Sour Cream
1 tsp - Vanilla Extract
1 cup - Cherry Pie Filling
Water
4 cups - Oil

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.
