Ingredients

  • 4 ounces regular cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic pepper
  • ½-1 teaspoon paprika
  • Egg Roll or Won Ton Wrappers

Instructions

  • Heat 1-2 inches of oil in a small frying pan on medium heat.
  • Mix spices into softened cream cheese until well incorporated.
  • If you have egg roll wrappers, slice them with a pizza cutter into 4 small squares. Won Ton wrappers are already cut to the size you need.
  • Using a small ice cream scoop place teaspoon-sized ball in center of square wrapper. Dip your finger in water and spread on the four corners of the wrapper and fold up.
  • When oil is hot, fry until all sides are golden brown. Depending on how hot your oil is, you may need to fry for a shorter or longer amount of time. Enjoy with yummy sweet and sour sauce!
