  • Author: Hannah

Ingredients

Scale

8 egg roll wrappers
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup chopped strawberries or your favorite fruit (optional)
Vegetable oil, for frying

For the Caramel Sauce:
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
Pinch of salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  • Make the Filling:

    • In a bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and sour cream until smooth.

    • Gently fold in chopped fruit if using.

  • Assemble the Egg Rolls:

    • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you.

    • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of filling near the center.

    • Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly.

    • Seal the edge with a bit of water.

  • Fry the Egg Rolls:

    • Heat 1–2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C).

    • Fry egg rolls in batches for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.

    • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

  • Make the Caramel Sauce:

    • In a small saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar over medium heat.

    • Stir in heavy cream and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring constantly.

    • Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.

 

  • Serve:

    • Drizzle warm caramel sauce over the crispy cheesecake egg rolls.

    • Serve immediately for the best texture.
