Ingredients:

  • 8 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp green onions, finely minced
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 0.5 tsp granulated sugar
  • 0.25 tsp kosher salt
  • 24 square wonton wrappers
  • 2 tbsp neutral oil
  • 1 bowl cold water

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until completely smooth using a spatula or hand mixer.
  2. Fold in the minced green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, and salt until evenly distributed.
  3. Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Place approximately 1.5 teaspoons of the cream cheese mixture in the center.
  4. Dip your finger in cold water and moisten the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper over the filling and roll tightly into a cylinder (cigar shape), pressing the edges to seal and allowing the ends to act as vents.
  5. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Arrange the rolls on the baking sheet and use a pastry brush to coat each roll lightly with neutral oil to facilitate the Maillard reaction.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through, until the shells are golden brown and crispy.
