Ingredients

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine and mix well softened cream cheese with chopped green onions, minced sweet onions, sugar and salt.
Crack an egg into a small bowl and whisk it. Set aside.
To wrap the wonton, spoon ~ 1 tablespoon of cream cheese mixture onto the middle of a wonton wrapper. Do not overfill.
Using a brush or finger, brush all four sides of the wonton wrapper with egg mixture.
Pick up two opposite corners and press them to each other, then pick up the other two opposite corners to the middle and press the sides together to seal and close the seams.
Repeat Step 3-5 until all the cream cheese mixture are gone. This recipe should yield 15-18 wontons.
When all the wontons are wrapped, pre-heat oven to 400°F. Brush or spray vegetable oil all over wontons, then line them up onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Bring wontons into oven and bake for 7-8 minutes. Remove from oven and let them cool for 10 minutes.
Serve with Thai sweet chili sauce and enjoy!

Notes

Air fryer Instructions: Instead of baking the wontons, air fry at 350°F for 5-7 minutes. Make sure to space out wontons and do not overlap and overcrowd them in the air fryer.
