Description
Crispy fried egg rolls filled with a sweet cream cheese and cherry mixture.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup cherry pie filling
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture near one edge of an egg roll wrapper.
- Spoon about 1 teaspoon of cherry pie filling over the cream cheese mixture.
- Fold the sides of the wrapper inward over the filling.
- Roll the wrapper tightly from the edge with the filling toward the opposite edge. Moisten the final edge with water to seal.
- Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Carefully place the egg rolls into the hot oil, working in batches if necessary.
- Fry for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crisp.
- Remove the egg rolls from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Notes
- Serve immediately dusted with powdered sugar, if desired.
- For a dipping sauce, mix powdered sugar with a small amount of milk until you reach your preferred consistency.
