Strawberry Napoleons with Sugared Wonton Wrappers


I saw this recipe for Peach Napoleons with Sugared Wonton Wrappers on Taste and Tell. Deborah always has great recipes, but I was really impressed with this one because it can be made so quickly with relatively few calories.

I substituted strawberries for the peaches and used Light Cool Whip to keep the calories down. I forgot the powdered sugar, which would have made for a better presentation, but it was a big hit with the family. I will definitely make this again, hopefully I'll get some great peaches before their gone.

Peach Napoleons with Sugared Wonton Wrappers
Serves 4

cooking spray
12 wonton wrappers
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup fresh prepared sweetened whipped cream
2 fresh peaches, cleaned and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 400F. Coat a large cooking sheet with cooking spray.

Lay the wonton wrappers on the prepared sheet in a single layer. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray. Sprinkle sugar evenly over the wrappers.

Cook in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven.

To arrange, place four of the wonton wrappers on a serving plate or on individual dessert dishes. Top each wonton with 2 tablespoons of the whipped cream, followed by 1/4 of a peach. Top with a second wonton wrapper. Repeat layer with 2 tablespoons whipped cream and 1/4 of a peach. (For a total of half a peach for each dessert.) Top with the remaining wonton wrappers.

Sift powdered sugar over the tops and serve.

That looks delicious! What a great idea to use wonton wrappers for Napoleons! I think I would like the strawberries better than the peaches though.

That looks great, you're right very simple and low calorie but you'd never know from the presentation that you were eating something low cal as it looks sumptuous!
