wonton crisps

instead of making the "spicy" crisps, we wanted something sweeter for dessert. so, i layed out the wonton skins on a baking sheet and sprayed them with some butter flavored pam. then put a very tiny amount (maybe 1/4 teaspoon or less) of cinnamon-sugar in the center of 1/2 of the wraps. i folded those over to make a triangle and lightly pressed the seams together. on the other half, i put a small drop of low fat cream cheese (neufchatel) topped with a small sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar and folded them in the same way. i lightly sprayed the tops of all my triangles with pam and finished them with a sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar over the tops.

i followed the time and temperature as the recipe calls for, and they turned out just fine. overall, i liked the non cream cheese versions better. the wonton has a light texture, almost like a wafer. the sugar mixture adds the sweet taste i was after. (if you'd like them a little sweeter, when they come out of the oven, dust the wontons with some powdered sugar.) the whole process took no more than 15-20 minutes.

following is the original recipe.
