Makes 12 Chocolate Wontons
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
12 wonton wrappers, defrosted (keep wrappers covered with damp towel)
12 pieces or nuggets of chocolate
High-heat oil for frying
Confectioners' sugar, for sprinkling

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash.

2. On a clean, dry surface, lay 1 wrapper down with a point toward you, like a diamond. Place 1 piece of chocolate near the top end of the wrapper. Brush a very thin layer of the egg wash on the edges of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper ups to create a triangle and gently press to remove all alir fomr the middle. Press the eges to adhere the sides. Make sure the wrapper is sealed completely. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and chocolate pieces. Keep the folded chocolate wontons covered under plastic wrap or a damp paper towels to prevent them from drying.

3. In a wok or medium pot, pour in 2 inches (5cm) of high-heat oil. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and gently slide a few of the chocolate wontons into the hot oil. Make sure you don't crowd the chocolate wontons too much. Fry 1 1/2 minutes, then flip fry another minute until both sides are golden brown and crisp.
