In China, these wontons are called firecrackers because of their shape. This recipe is my variation on that popular Chinese theme. Instead of the traditional stuffing of dates, I use sultanas or raisins combined with desiccated coconut and walnuts. The result is a sweet, crunchy and delectable dessert. They may be cooked hours in advance but are tastiest when eaten warm. These wontons are quite addictive; try them just with tea.
