These look like little ravioli only they're filled with chocolate :) Ingredients:
1/2 cup port wine or 1/2 cup red zinfandel wine |
1 tablespoon sugar (2 tbsp if using zinfandel) |
1/4 cup dried tart cherry |
1 tablespoon butter |
2 cups canola oil (other cooking oils ok) |
12 wonton wrappers |
1 egg, beaten |
3 ounces bar bittersweet chocolate, cut into 6 pieces |
sugar |
vanilla ice cream |
grated bittersweet chocolate |
Directions:
1. SAUCE:.
2. Heat port to boiling in saucepan; reduce heat. Boil gently, uncovered, 3 to 4 minutes or until reduced to 1/3 cup.
3. Add sugar; cook and stir 1 minute. Add cherries, cook 2 minutes more, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Whisk in butter; keep warm.
4. Meanwhile, heat oil in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat until temperature reaches 350 degrees F. While oil heats, brush edges of 1 wonton wrapper with beaten egg. Place 1 piece of chocolate in center. Top with another wrapper to form pillow. Press edges to seal. Repeat with wrappers, beaten egg, and chocolate.
5. Cook filled pillows, 1 at a time, in hot oil for 1 minute or until golden, turning frequently. Remove with slotted spoon. Drain on paper towels. Adjust heat as needed to maintain oil temperature. Cool slightly; sprinkle with sugar.
6. Serve pillows with cherry sauce and ice cream. Sprinkle ice cream with grated remaining pillows up to 24 hours.
