Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup diced strawberries
Wrapper and Frying
- 12 eggroll wrappers
- Oil, for frying (about 2 cups, vegetable or canola oil recommended)
- Cinnamon sugar, for sprinkling (about 2 tablespoons)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Add strawberries: Gently fold the diced strawberries into the cream cheese mixture, distributing them evenly without breaking the fruit.
- Fill the wrappers: Place one eggroll wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese and strawberry mixture into the center of the wrapper.
- Roll the eggrolls: Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then tightly roll from the bottom corner to seal the filling inside, forming a neat eggroll shape. Use a dab of water along the edges to seal if needed.
- Heat oil: In a deep pan or skillet, heat oil over medium heat to approximately 350°F (175°C). Ensure there is enough oil to submerge the eggroll bites partially for crisp frying.
- Fry the eggroll bites: Carefully place the prepared eggroll bites in the hot oil. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Drain excess oil: Using a slotted spoon, remove the eggroll bites from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Add cinnamon sugar: While still warm, sprinkle the eggroll bites generously with cinnamon sugar for added sweetness and flavor.
- Serve promptly: Enjoy the Strawberry Cheesecake Eggroll Bites warm as a delightful dessert or snack.
Notes
- Ensure cream cheese is softened for easy mixing.
- Be careful when rolling the eggroll wrappers to avoid tearing.
- Maintain oil temperature to avoid soggy or overcooked bites.
- Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor and texture.
- Serve immediately for maximum crispiness.
