Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 24.3 ounces no-bake cheesecake filling (such as Philadelphia)
- 21 ounces cherry pie filling
Crispy Coating and Frying
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 ½ cups vegetable oil, for frying
Topping
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup graham cracker crumbs
Instructions
- Prepare the Egg Rolls: Lay out the egg roll wrappers on a clean surface and brush the edges of each wrapper lightly with melted butter. This helps seal the wrappers and gives them a golden finish when fried.
- Add Fillings: Spoon a generous amount of no-bake cheesecake filling and cherry pie filling in the center of each wrapper. Be careful not to overfill to ensure they can be folded and rolled properly.
- Roll the Egg Rolls: Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll up tightly from one edge to the other, securing the filling inside. For extra security, double wrap each egg roll with an additional wrapper layer to prevent leakage during frying.
- Heat Oil and Fry: In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Carefully add the egg rolls in batches, frying them until they turn golden brown and crispy on all sides, approximately 3-4 minutes per batch.
- Drain and Coat: Using tongs, remove the fried egg rolls and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. While still warm, immediately toss each egg roll in a mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon to coat evenly.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the coated egg rolls with graham cracker crumbs for added texture and flavor. Serve hot for the best taste experience.
Notes
- Double wrapping the egg rolls helps prevent the filling from leaking out during frying.
- Be sure not to overfill the wrappers to avoid breakage.
- Use a thermometer to maintain oil temperature around 350°F for best frying results.
- Serve immediately to enjoy maximum crispiness.
- Leftovers can be reheated in an air fryer to restore crispness.
