Steps:
- Heat 2 inches of oil over medium heat until oil reaches 350*F in a wok or sauce pan. While oil is heating, scoop 1 teaspoon of cream cheese into center of each wonton wrapper.

GINGER ICE CREAM
Fresh ginger root and candied ginger give this silky, custard-based ice cream an intense spice flavor. Don't overlook the clove, which adds a deep, woodsy note. You can make this ice cream up to a week ahead, but after that it will start to develop ice crystals.

Steps:
- In a medium pot, combine cream, milk, sugar, ginger, cinnamon, clove and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then cover, remove from heat, and let steep for 1 hour.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the yolks. Whisking constantly, slowly whisk about a third of the cream into the yolks, then whisk yolk mixture back into the pot with the cream. Return pot to medium-low heat and gently cook until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 170 degrees on an instant-read thermometer).
- Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Cool mixture to room temperature. Cover and chill at least 4 hours or overnight. Churn in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions, adding the candied ginger during the last few seconds of churning. Serve directly from the machine for soft serve, or store in freezer until needed. Serve topped with extra candied ginger if desired.
Tips
- For a crispy wonton, make sure to use wonton wrappers that are not too thick. Thicker wrappers will not crisp up as well and will be more likely to break.
- To prevent the wontons from sticking together, make sure to coat them lightly with oil before frying.
- Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when frying the wontons. This will cause them to stick together and not cook evenly.
- Once the wontons are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the pan and drain on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- For the best results, serve the chocolate wontons immediately with ginger ice cream.
- If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make the ginger ice cream by following the recipe and then freezing the mixture in a covered container for at least 4 hours.
Conclusion
Chocolate wontons with ginger ice cream is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The wontons are crispy and filled with a rich chocolate filling, while the ice cream is creamy and refreshing with a hint of ginger. This dessert is sure to impress your guests and is a great way to end a meal.
