Forget those rangoons from the Chinese takeout place… there’s hardly any flavor in those (other than sweet)… this homemade version will knock your socks off! Savory, creamy, FULL of flavor, you just have to try these!
Crab rangoons are my favorite thing to order when we get Chinese takeout. They’re always delicious, hot and crispy on the outside, creamy and smooth on the inside… I could seriously eat the whole bag myself! But for the amount you get from a takeout place, and what you pay for it, it’s not a cheap appetizer, that’s for sure. So how would you like to make your own crab rangoons, at home, for less money, that taste WAY better, and you can make your own dipping sauce?

RECIPE NOTES
As an alternative to frying, you can place rangoons on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, spray with cooking spray, and bake in a 400 degree oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. This is a delicious and less time consuming way to enjoy these rangoons!
