Description
A fun, crunchy take on classic cheesecake with a creamy sweet filling wrapped in a crisp egg roll wrapper.
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- 1 beaten egg mixed with 1 tbsp water (for sealing)
- Neutral oil (vegetable or canola), for frying
- Melted butter, for brushing (if baking)
- Your choice of jam or chopped berries (optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth.
- Spoon 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons of filling onto each egg roll wrapper, adding jam or berries if desired.
- Fold and seal the wrappers with the egg wash.
- For frying: Heat oil to 350°F, fry the egg rolls for 2–3 minutes per side until golden, and drain on a wire rack.
- For baking: Brush with melted butter and bake at 375°F for 12–15 minutes, turning once until golden.
Notes
Chill the filling to prevent leakage during frying. Use a thermometer to maintain oil temperature.
