Chocolate Hazlenut Dessert Wontons
Ingredients:
6 Wonton Wrappers
1/4 C Chocolate Hazelnut Spread (Nutella)
1 Egg, Beaten
Powdered Sugar, Sifted
This is a quick and simple dessert that is great alone as a snack, or as an elegant garnish for a scoop of mousse or gelato.
Directions:
Begin by preheating a deep-fat fryer or pan of vegetable or canola oil to 350 degrees. Dab 1-2 teaspoons of Nutella onto each wonton, just slightly off center. It is important not to overfill the wontons, as the filling will expand during cooking. Brush the beaten egg lightly over all four edges of the wonton. Fold the wonton over diagonally, and press to seal into a triangle. Fry for 1 minute on each side, turning carefully. Dust with sifted powdered sugar, and serve warm.
Serving Suggestions:
In addition to the powdered sugar, the wontons can be sprinkled with cinnamon and served with a spicy cup of Mexican hot cocoa.
