They're the perfect indulgent treat for a special occasion or a lazy weekend afternoon.

1.	In a mixing bowl, combine chopped bananas, chopped nuts, and brown sugar.
2.	Lay out wonton wrappers and brush edges with beaten egg.
3.	Drop a spoonful of banana mixture in the center of each wrapper.
4.	Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, and press edges to seal.
5.	Fill a skillet with about 1/2-inch of oil and heat over medium-high heat.
6.	Drop wontons into the hot oil and cook for 1-2 minutes per side or until golden brown.
7.	Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
8.	Drizzle with chocolate syrup and serve warm.
