Description

Indulge in these delightful Cherry Cream Cheese Egg Rolls that marry sweet cherry pie filling with creamy cheese, all wrapped in a crispy shell. These fried treats are a fusion of flavors that make for a perfect dessert or sweet snack.


Ingredients

Scale

Egg Rolls:

  • 8 egg roll wrappers

Cream Cheese Filling:

  • 1 cup cherry pie filling
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Frying:

  • Vegetable oil

Optional:

  • Extra powdered sugar for dusting or melted chocolate for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Cream Cheese Filling: In a small bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Assembly: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you (diamond shape). Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center, then top with 1 to 2 tablespoons of cherry pie filling. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly, sealing the edge with a dab of water. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
  3. Frying: Heat 1 to 2 inches of oil in a deep skillet or saucepan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate before serving.

Notes

  • To bake instead of fry, brush egg rolls with melted butter and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15–18 minutes, turning halfway through. These are best served warm but can be reheated in the oven or air fryer for a crispy texture.
