Ingredients
- 2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 16 ounces ricotta
- 3 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar, plus more for dusting
- 1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest, plus a little more for garnish
- 1 teaspoon orange liqueur, such as Cointreau or triple sec, optional
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- About 2 cups vegetable oil
- 12 wonton wrappers
Instructions
- Put the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted, about 1 1/2 minutes.
- Pulse the ricotta, confectioners’ sugar, orange zest, orange liqueur, if using, and vanilla in a food processor until smooth. Add the chocolate and pulse until well combined. Transfer to a small serving bowl and sprinkle with a little more orange zest. Refrigerate until ready to serve. (Dip can be made up to 1 day ahead and kept refrigerated in an airtight container.)
- Heat about 1/2 inch oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees F and line a tray with paper towels. Working in batches, fry the wonton wrappers, turning once, until crispy and golden brown on both sides, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per batch. Transfer to the lined tray.
- Dust the fried wonton wrappers with confectioners’ sugar and serve with the chocolate orange dip.

Great recipe! I love the orange zest flavor!
It was definitely easy to make and it was tasty but it wasn’t “to die for”.
Loved it and could not stop eating these. Way too good!
