Heat about 3 inches of vegetable oil in a medium frying pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F.

In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, scallions, and garlic powder until smooth.

Place about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Brush the edges with water and fold to form a triangle, sealing tightly.

Carefully fry the assembled rangoons in small batches for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown.

Transfer fried rangoons to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Let the rangoons cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving with your favorite dipping sauces.
