I used mayo instead of sour cream, and added garlic powder. I also did not pre-bake my wontons, just left them in for about 15 minutes. They turned out SO good!!
Kathy
Couldn't find wontons anywhere so cut up phylo pastry. Made several times such a hit!
Kelly
Great idea, Kathy! Thanks so much!
Suzanne
Are these intended to be served warm or can they be served at room temperature?
Kelly
Hi Suzanne! I serve them warm but room temperature is fine, too. Because they contain dairy, I wouldn't leave them at room temperature for a very long time.
