Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 cup neutral oil for frying canola or vegetable
- 1 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread
- 8 oz square wonton wrappers keep covered so they don’t dry out
- 1 tsp cornstarch for sealing slurry
- 2 tbsp water mix with cornstarch
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar for dusting
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon mix with sugar
- 2 tbsp finely chopped toasted hazelnuts optional garnish
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Stir the sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl; set aside for dusting.
- Whisk cornstarch and water to make a thin slurry.
- Lay out a few wonton wrappers. Add a small spoonful of chocolate-hazelnut spread to the center of each.
- Brush wrapper edges lightly with the slurry. Fold into a triangle, press out any air, and seal firmly. Crimp edges for extra security.
- Repeat with remaining wrappers. Chill the filled dumplings for 10 minutes while you heat the oil.
- Heat oil in a deep, heavy pot to 350°F over medium heat.
- Fry dumplings in batches, 45–60 seconds per side, until deep golden and crisp. Avoid overcrowding.
- Transfer to a rack or paper towels. Immediately dust with the cinnamon sugar.
- Serve warm, sprinkled with chopped hazelnuts if using.
Notes
Try adding a thin slice of banana inside each dumpling before sealing, or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. To make ahead, assemble and freeze in a single layer; fry straight from frozen, adding about 30 seconds.
