Wow! What a great recipe! I made a couple of variations. I added chopped spinach and mushrooms to the filling mix and I was more than generous on the spices. The dough is a good recipe but I recommend using a pasta maker as it's really hard to roll it out by hand. I used a four cheese sauce which sweetened the entire dish. I will surely make these again. Thanks...

Only rating the filling...which was Excellent!! Put 1 rounded tsp. in between 2 wonton wrappers for the "dough" and sealed with water. I used gruyere cheese sparingly and the filling was creamy and very tasty. This was a very easy way to use up the other half of some leftover butternut squash. Will be making again! Thanks!
