These Blueberry Cream Cheese Egg Rolls are a delectable dessert featuring crispy, golden egg rolls filled with a creamy, sweetened cream cheese and fresh blueberry filling. Fried to perfection and dusted with powdered sugar, they offer a delightful combination of textures and flavors—ideal for parties, family gatherings, or as a fun snack!

Ingredients

For the blueberry filling:

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 7 tbsp water, divided
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch

For the cream cheese filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For assembling:

  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • 2+ cups vegetable oil, for frying
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and 4 tbsp water. Cook over medium heat until the blueberries burst. Add the cornstarch mixture (remaining 3 tbsp water with 3 tbsp cornstarch) and stir until the filling thickens. Let it cool completely.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  3. Lay an egg roll wrapper flat on a clean surface. Spoon 1 tbsp of the cream cheese filling and 1 tbsp of the blueberry filling onto the center of the wrapper. Roll tightly, sealing the edges with a bit of water.
  4. Heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) in a deep skillet. Fry each egg roll for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
  5. Dust the fried egg rolls with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • For a lighter option, you can bake these egg rolls at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • You can swap blueberries for other fruits like raspberries, strawberries, or apples to suit your preference.
  • Add a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers inside the rolls for added crunch.
