add some imitation crab to the mix and you have crab puffs….these are so good and if you flash fry them you can freeze them….would not recommend freezing them if you dont fry them first or they will stick together. I love your recipes.

I just have to ask…what’s the coconut oil in the picture for?

It is the oil I used to cook the wontons in

Oh, I love these,,, try Salmon Cream cheese with a little Dill. Or any fruit flavored cream cheese and you can add a chunk of fruit! Dip in Chocolate too! Sundried tomato with basil… So many yummy things! :)

I love the idea – I am sure they can be baked

That’s what I do. I ALWAYS bake mine. I give them a little spritz of cooking spray and pop them in a 350 F oven until brown. The cooking spray helps them crisp up nicely. My family LOVES cream cheese won tons and I love that I can bake them and save some of the calories so I can have a couple extra ;) .

Thanks! I usually buy those prepackaged ones at the commissary, and they’re over $2.00 for a 6 pack! I think these will be way better!

Can these be made ahead of time and reheated? (Or room temp?)

Flash freeze on a cookie sheet. They wont stick together. After frozen, they can be bagged and frozen for later use. I have done this for years.
