Deliciously Spicy Jalapeño Popper Egg Rolls

These Spicy Jalapeño Popper Egg Rolls offer a delightful crunch with a creamy, zesty filling—ideal for parties or a cozy night in.

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 3-4 fresh jalapeños diced
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 package egg roll wrappers about 20 sheets
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Prepare the filling by mixing cream cheese, cheddar, diced jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  2. Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner facing you. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the filling near the center.
  3. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the side corners and roll up tightly, sealing the top corner with a little water.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat until hot, about 350°F (175°C).
  5. Carefully place a few egg rolls in the hot oil, frying until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  6. Remove the fried egg rolls with a slotted spoon, allowing excess oil to drain on paper towels.
  7. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch or sriracha.
