Wonton Poppers

Absolutely delicious Appetizers - or even a light meal.  They are crunchy on the outside, with melted cheese with a kick on the middle.
Ingredients
1-8oz cream cheese, softened
1c Monterey jack cheese
Jalapeno pepper seeded and finely diced...

1t fresh minced garlic
3 green onions, diced
Black pepper
16oz package wonton wrappers
1qt Crisco Oil, for frying

Combine cream cheese, jack, jalapeno, garlic and green onions, mix well and season with black pepper, as desired. Fill the wonton wrappers with 1T cream cheese mixture. Fold wrappers into triangles then press with moistened fingers to seal. In a large skillet, heat oil. Carefully place 3-4 wontons at a time into the oil and quickly fry, turning once until golden brown. Remove to paper towels. Salt while still hot. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Yield 12-16 Poppers
