For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or a dash of Worcestershire sauce to the cream cheese mixture. Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened to ensure a smooth and creamy filling. Be careful not to overfill the wontons, as this can cause them to burst open during frying. These wontons can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for a few hours before frying. Make sure to cover them with a damp paper towel to prevent them from drying out. For freezing, place the assembled wontons in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. Fry directly from frozen, adding an extra minute or two to the cooking time.
