  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 egg rolls 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp lemon zest (optional)
  • 1 cup cherry pie filling

Assembly & Frying

  • 8–10 egg roll wrappers
  • 2–3 tbsp butter or oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, blend softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. If desired, stir in freshly grated lemon zest for brightness. Gently fold in the cherry pie filling, ensuring it is evenly mixed but not too watery.
  2. Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper flat on a clean surface in a diamond shape. Spoon about two tablespoons of the cherry cheesecake filling onto the bottom third of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides tightly toward the center. Roll the wrapper upwards to seal the filling inside, using a dab of water on the final corner to seal it shut completely.
  3. Fry the Egg Rolls: Heat butter or oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Carefully place the assembled egg rolls seam side down and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan for an even fry. Remove from heat and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  4. Serve Warm: Serve Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls warm for best flavor and texture. They pair well with whipped cream, a sprinkle of powdered sugar, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth filling.
  • Don’t overfill the wrappers to prevent tearing or leaking.
  • Seal edges thoroughly with water to keep rolls intact during frying.
  • Maintain medium heat when frying to bake the rolls evenly without burning.
  • Drain cooked egg rolls on paper towels to keep them crisp.
