Hi guys!
I have been thinking about experimenting with some desserts lately. I'm really not much of a baker, at all (rarely make desserts, in fact... much prefer cooking) so I need some help. I have a few ideas that I think would be good but I dont know how to really execute them properly or if it would even work.
I want to make some kind of dessert using wonton wrappers and various fillings. Some ideas for fillings I've had are saskatoon berry compote, pear and gorgonzola, pureed figs and some kind of nuts (maybe crushed candied almonds?), and perhaps something with chocolate.
Anyway, first question is do you think these fillings would work for a dessert wonton? Secondly, how should I cook them? Bake? Deep fry? (I fear that if I deep fried all the filling might come out... would that happen do you think?) Thirdly, should I serve them with some kind of sauce - if so, what?
I was thinking for the berry filled one I could serve it with some yogurt sweetened with honey... does that sound too strange?
Sorry for so many questions... I really am so clueless when it comes to making desserts. I have lots of ideas but dont know how to put it all together!
Thanks for any help you can give me...
