Description
Cheesecake Eggrolls are crispy fried desserts filled with a creamy cheesecake mixture and swirled with strawberry jam. Perfect for a delightful treat or dessert option.
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup strawberry jam or preserves
- Fresh strawberries, diced (optional)
- 10–12 eggroll wrappers
- Water or egg wash (1 egg whisked with water) for sealing
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
- Extra strawberry jam or chocolate sauce, for dipping (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gently fold in strawberry jam and diced strawberries (if using) for a swirled effect.
- Place an eggroll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape.
- Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of filling onto the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll tightly to form a log, sealing the top corner with water or egg wash.
- Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Heat 1-2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or saucepan to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry eggrolls in batches for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Dust with powdered sugar if desired, and serve warm with extra strawberry jam or chocolate sauce for dipping.
Notes
- Adding fresh diced strawberries to the filling will create an extra burst of flavor.
- Use caution while frying to maintain the oil temperature for even cooking.
- You can substitute strawberry jam with other flavors like raspberry or blueberry for variation.
