One of my favorite restaurant appetizers is fried cream cheese wontons. They are so creamy and the perfect amount of crunch. The amazing thing is there is not alot at goes into making them: a few easy to find ingredients and make 15 minute cook time for a large batch. These little yummies are best served as a party snack {hot} or along side of stir-fry dinner.
