Ingredients:
1 tsp
Ground Cloves1 tsp
Ground Cinnamon1 tsp
Vanilla Extract1 cup
Butter1 cup
Brown Sugar2 tbsps
Light Corn SyrupDirections:
1
Place the bananas, 1/3 cup chocolate chips, clove, cinnamon, and vanilla into a mixing bowl, and mash until evenly blended
2
Alternatively, chop the mixture in a food processor until the chocolate chips have been reduced in size
3
This will help prevent the chips from poking through the wonton skins as you handle them
4
It will also change the texture of the filling - you will not have pockets of melted chocolate in the wontons
5
To make the wontons: Separate and place the wonton wrappers onto your work surface
6
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the banana filling onto the center of each wrapper
7
Use your finger or a pastry brush to lightly moisten the edges of the wonton wrappers with water
8
Fold one corner of the wrapper over the filling onto the opposite corner to form a triangle
9
Press the edges together to seal
10
Repeat with the remaining ingredients
11
Prepare the sauce by combining the butter, brown sugar, orange liqueur, and corn syrup in a small saucepan
12
Bring to a simmer over medium heat, and cook until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce is smooth, about 4 minutes
13
Set aside to cool slightly
14
Fry the wontons in the hot oil a few at a time until golden brown, about 4 minutes
15
Turn the wontons over halfway through cooking so they brown evenly
16
Remove, and drain on a paper towel-lined plate
17
Serve warm with the caramel sauce
18
Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons chocolate chips to garnish
