I made these for a friends Christmas pasrt this week and they were a big hit. My kids liked being able to help fold the wontons as well. MAkes a cool and different family cooking project.

these were good. i forgot to sprinkle the top with cinnamon sugar, but, ate it with some cool whip free - so good, definitely a great way to use up those leftover wonton wrappers :-)

Very good. i followed the recipe exactly. Warm, crispy, and yummy. i did have problems with the pumpkin leaking out of the wrappers even after sealing them thoroughly. But, the taste was worth the mess!! Great right out of the oven. Thanks for posting the recipe.
