Recipe View 10 mins Assemble the Puffs: Lay a few wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of each wrapper. Pinch the corners together to form a triangle. If the edges don't adhere, lightly moisten them with water. Arrange the assembled puffs on a piece of waxed paper. (20 minutes)

Recipe View 5 mins Fry the Puffs: Heat the canola oil in a large, deep skillet over medium to medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 350°F (175°C). Carefully place 5 to 10 puffs into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry on each side until golden brown and crispy. (2-3 minutes per side)

Recipe View 2 mins Drain and Serve: Remove the fried puffs from the oil using tongs and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve immediately on a platter with the reserved cranberry relish as a delightful dipping sauce. (5 minutes)

For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeno before processing.
The reserved cranberry relish can also be used as a spread for crackers or sandwiches.
Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve a crispy texture. If the oil isn't hot enough, the wontons may absorb too much oil and become soggy.
These puffs are best enjoyed fresh, as the wonton wrappers tend to lose their crispness over time.

    I found that using egg roll wrappers cut into smaller squares worked well too.
