After Dinner Wontons

• 2 medium pears, peeled and shredded
• 2 medium apples, peeled and chopped
• 3 tablespoons dried tart cherries, chopped
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine
• 3 tablespoons marsala wine or 3 tablespoons apple juice
• 2 tablespoons almonds, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 12 teaspoon ground ginger
• 14 cup maple syrup
• 36 wonton wrappers, 3 1/4-inch rounds
• 3 tablespoons butter, melted
• confectioners' sugar

1. Original called for 2 tablespoons of butter to cook fruit inches.
2. For filling, in a medium bowl toss together pears, apples, cherries, and lemon juice.
3. In a large skillet cook fruit mixture in the 2 tablespoons butter or margarine over medium heat about 7 minutes.
4. Reduce heat; stir in Marsala or apple juice, nuts cinnamon, and ginger.
5. Cook for 3 minutes more or till liquid has evaporated, stirring often.
6. Stir in syrup; set aside.
7. For each wonton, spoon about 2 teaspoons filling into the center of a wrapper.
8. Lightly moisten edges of wrapper with water.
9. Fold top edge of wrapper over filling to opposite edge, making a half-moon.
10. Press edges together to seal.
11. Arrange wontons on a greased baking sheet.
12. Brush with the melted butter.
13. Sprinkle with coarse sugar, if using.
14. Bake in a 350F oven for 12 to 15 minutes or till golden.
15. Cool slightly.
16. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if using.
17. NOTES : I made these tonight.
18. I reduced the initial amount of butter and it was fine.
19. I tried spraying them with butter flavored spray instead of brushing them with butter and they would have been better with the butter.
20. I also used bigger, square wontons and folded them diagonally to make them like turnovers (made 6).
21. They were very tasty.
22. Serve with some fat-free vanilla frozen yogurt and they would be a great lowfat dessert.
23. Fruit-and-nut-filled wontons add a subtle finish to the evening meal.
