In a medium bowl mix the cream cheese, scallions, and garlic powder together until creamy.

8 oz cream cheese,3 tbsp thinly sliced scallions,1/2 tsp garlic powder

Add about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper. Brush the edges with some room temperature water.

48 wonton wrappers

Fold the wonton by placing the center of each side into the middle and pinch firmly to get that iconic look. Repeat until done with the cream cheese mixture.

Carefully place the wontons you made first into the oil making sure not to overcrowd them. Allow them to cook until they are golden brown. Remove the oil using a slotted spoon and allow them to drain on paper towels. Repeat this process until all of the Rangoon's are fried.

Let them cool down for 5-10 minutes before serving with some sweet and sour dipping sauce.
