Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
Assembly and Frying
- 8–10 egg roll wrappers
- Butter or oil for frying (about 1/4 cup)
- Optional: powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: Mix softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in diced fresh strawberries without mashing to maintain texture.
- Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper flat. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling near one corner. Fold the corner over the filling, tuck in the sides tightly, and roll up firmly to seal using a little water on the edge.
- Fry the Egg Rolls: Heat butter or oil in a pan over medium heat. Place egg rolls seam side down and fry 2-3 minutes per side, turning until all sides are crispy and golden brown.
- Drain and Serve: Remove egg rolls and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Let cool slightly and optionally dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- Keep cheesecake filling chilled until assembly to prevent soggy wrappers and ease handling.
- Use moderate filling amount to avoid bursting wrappers during frying.
- Seal wrapper edges well with water for a neat, leak-free roll.
- Maintain oil temperature at medium heat for crispy outsides without burning.
- Try baking at 375°F for 12-15 minutes or air frying for a healthier alternative.
