Tips and Tricks
- Make sure to soften cream cheese for easier mixing. It’s best to remove it from the fridge ahead of time before cooking. Alternatively, you can use the microwave method and soften it quickly. Just unwrapped cream cheese and place it on a microwave-safe plate or bowl. Microwave for about 1 minute.
- You can customize these dessert egg rolls with other favorite fruits
Variations
This recipe is versatile and you can try different combinations. Here are a few ideas:
- Use strawberries only for strawberry cheesecake egg rolls
- Raspberries, blackberries, diced pineapple or peaches
- Diced apples or cherries.
- If you want to mix different fruits, make sure that they will be cooked through with the same amount of time.
How To Wrap Dessert Egg Roll
Wrapping dessert egg rolls is easy, just resist the urge to stuff with too much filling!
- Lay out one egg roll wrapper with a corner pointed toward you.
- Place the filling near the bottom corner.
- Lift the bottom corner and cover the filling.
- Fold over the left side, and then the right side towards the center.
- Then roll it towards the top corner. (You will need to seal the edges with water and flour mixture if you choose to fry them!)
You can also wrap them into the wonton shape and turn them into cheesecake wontons!
Make Them Ahead
You can make this recipe ahead and freeze until you are ready to bake or fry them at a later time. Don’t leave uncooked cheesecake egg rolls in the fridge as egg roll wrappers will dry out quickly.
How To Reheat Dessert Egg Roll
Leftover dessert egg rolls are good for a few days in the refrigerator. To reheat, place them on a baking sheet and bake in the oven at 300 F degrees for 5-10 minutes.
