Byzitouni

🛒 What You’ll Need

  • 8 oz Cream cheese, softened 🧀
  • ½ cup Powdered sugar (plus extra for dusting) 🍬
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract 🍦
  • 1 can (21 oz) Cherry pie filling 🍒
  • 12 Egg roll wrappers 🥯
  • Oil for frying 🍳
  • 1 Egg, beaten (to seal the wrappers) 🥚

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. The Creamy Base: In a medium bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and fluffy. 🥣🌪️💎
  2. Assemble the Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cheesecake mixture in the center. 📐🤝🥇
  3. Add the Cherries: Top the cream cheese with a spoonful of cherry pie filling—be sure to include a few whole cherries for that beautiful cross-section! 🍒🥄✨
  4. The Roll-Up: Fold the bottom corner over the filling, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly. Brush the top corner with the beaten egg to seal it shut. 🥚🛡️🤝
  5. Fry to Gold: Heat oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F. Fry the egg rolls for 2–3 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are a deep golden-brown and crispy as seen in the photo! ⏲️📈🔥
  6. Drain & Cool: Place the hot rolls on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Let them cool slightly so the filling sets. 🧻🌬️💎
  7. The Snowy Finish: Generously dust the crispy rolls with powdered sugar for that beautiful, festive look! 🍬🎨✨
  8. Serve: Slice them on an angle to show off that incredible creamy cherry center! 🍽️😋🧤✨

🔥 Pro Tips:

  • The “Crispy” Secret: As shown in the photo, the key to that perfect, bubbly texture is ensuring the oil is hot enough before you start frying! 🍳🛡️💎
  • The “Filling” Hack: If you want a smoother bite, you can lightly chop the cherries in the pie filling before adding them to the rolls. 🍒🎯✨
