Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened (room temperature)
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup cherry pie filling or fresh cherries, pitted and chopped
Wrapper
- 10 pieces egg roll wrappers
- Cooking spray or melted butter, for brushing
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer or whisk to blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Incorporate Cherries: Gently fold the cherry pie filling or chopped fresh cherries into the cream cheese mixture until evenly distributed, careful not to break the cherries too much.
- Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the cherry cheesecake filling in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides tightly, and roll up to enclose the filling completely. Seal the edge with a dab of water to prevent opening during cooking.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat while you prepare the egg rolls for cooking.
- Prepare Egg Rolls for Air Frying: Lightly spray or brush the tops of each egg roll with cooking spray or melted butter to promote crispiness and golden coloring.
- Air Fry the Egg Rolls: Arrange the egg rolls in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even cooking. Air fry for 8-10 minutes until they become golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the egg rolls carefully from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or serve with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or chocolate syrup for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Serve these dessert egg rolls warm for the best flavor and texture.
- Leftover egg rolls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
- Reheat leftovers in the air fryer for a few minutes to regain crispiness.
- Feel free to experiment with different pie fillings or fresh fruit for variations.
