Guiltless cream cheese bites

It is fair to say that most of us have a sweet tooth and when you are trying to eat right satisfying that tooth can be a challenge.  This is a recipe for warm, crispy cream cheese bites that will not wreck your diet and will satisfy your craving.  
You will need:

- 1 package of Nasoya won ton wraps
- 1 package of your choice of filling.  I used Philadelphia sweet indulgence white chocolate cream cheese, milk chocolate cream cheese and cinnamon laughing cow cream cheese.  First lay your won ton wraps out on a flat surface and fill them.  The one pictured below is 1/2 a laughing cow wedge, a full wedge was just a bit much.  For the cream cheese I used 1/2 TBSP per won ton.  Place the filling in the center and fold the top corners of the won ton together so the cheese does not spill out. Place your folded won tons on a greased baking sheet and pre heat the oven to 425 degrees.  For a softer won ton brush them with olive oil or a cooking spray.  For crispy won tons, leave as is and bake at 425 for 8-10 minutes. After the time is up, remove from the oven and ENJOY!  
You could fill these with almost anything you want.  Philadelphia also makes cream cheeses in pesto, santa fe and garlic to name a few if you wanted more of an appetizer.  Milk Chocolate is my favorite.
