Ingredients
You only need a few ingredients to help you make this easy recipe. You most likely will need to make a quick trip to the grocery store to grab the wonton wrappers, but trust me you will be so glad that you did.
Wonton Wrappers – You can buy wonton wrappers in the refrigerated section of your local grocery store. Usually in the produce sections.
Chocolate Chips – Any brand of chocolate chips will work, but I used milk chocolate chips because they are the closest to the candy bars that are typically used.
Oil – This oil will be used for frying so you will need to use vegetable oil or canola oil because of the smoke point.
Substitutions
Chocolate: Instead of chocolate chips, you could also use chopped-up Hershey’s candy bars instead.
Wrappers: If you can’t find wonton wrappers you can use egg roll wrappers that you cut into squares instead.
Variations / Options / Add-Ins
Are you looking for ideas on making this recipe your own? Here are a few ways to change up the flavors of this sweet treat.
Graham Crackers: If you want a little more of a crunch in your smores wontons you could add some graham cracker crumbs to the chocolate chip filling.

Pumpkin: For a fun fall twist, try using pumpkin spice chocolate chips!
Equipment Needed / Helpful Tools
You only need a few kitchen staples to help you make this recipe. You should already have these tools in your cabinets.
- large pot or dutch oven – I recommend using a heavy bottom pot so that it is more stable.
- candy thermometer – this is optional but it can be helpful in making sure that your oil is at the correct temperature.
How to Make S’mores Wontons
Making these wontons are easy, just follow the steps below and you will have a tasty fall recipe in no time at all.
Step 1: Lay out the wontons on a cutting board
Lay a few wontons out on a cutting board and place a wet paper towel over the remaining wonton wrappers to keep them from drying out.
Step 2: Add the marshmallows and chocolate chips to a wonton
Place a few marshmallows and chocolate chips into the center of each wonton wrapper.
Step 3: Brush the edges of each wonton wrapper with a little water
Brush the edges of each wonton wrapper with a bit of water and then fold over into a triangle shape, pressing to seal and remove all air from the wonton.
Step 4: Finish wrapping the wontons
Brush the two edges of the long side of the triangle with water and fold over each other, just above the center of the wonton, pressing the center of the wonton up to form a crease, as shown.
Step 5: Repeat until you finish all the wontons
Repeat with all wonton wrappers.
Step 6: Heat the oil
Place the cooking oil in a heavy pan or dutch oven and heat to 300F.
Step 7: Fry the wontons
Fry the wontons 3-4 at a time until lightly golden, flipping over halfway through cooking, about 3 minutes each batch. Repeat until all wontons are fried.

Pro Tips

- Make sure to squeeze the air out of your wontons before you seal them.
- Be careful to not overheat the oil as that will cause the wontons to burn.
