Description
Blueberry Cream Cheese Egg Rolls are a delightful dessert that combines the rich creaminess of cream cheese with sweet blueberries, all wrapped in a crispy egg roll shell.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (150 g) fresh or frozen blueberries
- 8–10 egg roll wrappers
- 1 large egg, beaten (for sealing)
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
- Honey, maple syrup, or whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed without being mashed.
- Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you (a diamond shape).
- Spoon about 2–3 tablespoons of the filling into the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides tightly. Roll the wrapper up tightly toward the top corner, sealing the edges with a bit of beaten egg.
- Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- In a deep skillet or saucepan, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to maintain the correct temperature.
- Carefully place 2–3 egg rolls into the hot oil at a time. Fry for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Dust the egg rolls with powdered sugar while still warm. Serve with honey, maple syrup, whipped cream, or ice cream if desired.
Notes
- Make sure the oil is at the right temperature for even frying.
- These egg rolls can be served warm or at room temperature.
- Feel free to experiment with other fruits for the filling!
