Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Filling:
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup cherry pie filling
For the Egg Rolls:
  • 8 egg roll wrappers
  • 1 egg beaten, for sealing
  • Cooking spray or melted butter
For Serving:
  • Powdered sugar for dusting
  • Whipped cream optional
  • Chocolate or caramel sauce optional

Method
 

Make the Cheesecake Filling:
  1. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Gently fold in cherry pie filling, keeping some chunks intact for texture.
Assemble the Egg Rolls:
  1. Lay an egg roll wrapper flat in a diamond shape (corner pointing toward you).
  2. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the cheesecake mixture onto the lower third of the wrapper.
  3. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides.
  4. Brush the top edge with beaten egg and roll tightly to seal.
Air Fry to Perfection:
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly spray the egg rolls with cooking spray or melted butter.
  3. Arrange in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  4. Air fry for 7-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown.
Garnish & Serve:
  1. Let cool for 2 minutes before dusting with powdered sugar.
  2. Serve with whipped cream, chocolate drizzle, or caramel sauce.

Notes

  • Seal Edges Well: Use egg wash to prevent the filling from leaking out.
  • Don’t Overfill: Too much filling may cause the egg rolls to burst open.
  • Work Quickly with Wrappers: Keep unused wrappers covered with a damp towel to prevent drying.
  • Reheating: Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-4 minutes to maintain crispiness.
