  48                    Premade wonton wrappers (1 pkg)
  30       oz           Tart cherry pie filling
   3       c            Vegetable oil
                        Powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar

  Here is a genuine Fake Chinese Recipe.
  
  To assemble wontons, place approximately 1-1/2 ts cherry pie filling
  (2 cherries plus sauce) in the center of each wonton wrapper.
  Moisten the edges of each wrapper, bring one corner up over the
  filling to the opposite corner at an angle so that two overlapping
  triangles are formed. Pull the two bottom corners of the folded
  triangle forward so that they meet one another and slightly
  overlap. Moisten one end and pinch the two ends firmly together.
  Repeat.
  
  Pour the oil into a deep fryer and heat to 375°F. Deep fry the
  wontons, 8 to 10 at a time for about two minutes or until crisp and
  golden. Drain on paper towels.
  
  Fried wontons can be kept warm for about one hour in a 250°F oven
  or reheated for 5 minutes in a 450°F oven. Powdered sugar or
  cinnamon sugar can be sprinkled on the fried wontons, if desired.
  
  Note:

  Cherry dessert wontons can be assembled and frozen. To use, let
  thaw for 10 minutes and fry as above.
