Ingredients
Scale
Egg Roll Wrappers
- 8 egg roll wrappers
Cheesecake Filling
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Cherry Filling
- ½ cup cherry pie filling
Additional Ingredients
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup powdered sugar, for dusting
- ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar. Beat the mixture until smooth and creamy, then stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
- Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper flat with one corner facing you. Place a spoonful of the cheesecake mixture in the center, followed by a small spoonful of cherry pie filling on top. Fold the sides inward and roll tightly, sealing with a little water to prevent leaks during cooking.
- Air Fry the Egg Rolls: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Lightly brush or spray the egg rolls with melted butter to enhance crispiness. Arrange them in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove from the air fryer and dust with powdered sugar and cinnamon if desired. Serve warm for a deliciously crispy and creamy dessert.
Notes
- Make sure to seal the egg rolls properly with water to avoid filling leakage during air frying.
- For even cooking, flip the egg rolls halfway through the air frying time.
- Customize dusting with cinnamon or other spices according to preference.
- Use room temperature cream cheese for easier mixing and smoother filling.
- Enjoy these as a quick dessert or a sweet snack any time.
