Elegant Blueberry Cream Cheese Egg Rolls 😋🤍🍇
Ingredients:
For the Blueberry Filling:
-2 cups fresh blueberries
-⅓ cup sugar
-1 tablespoon lemon juice
-7 tablespoons water, divided
-3 tablespoons cornstarch
For the Cream Cheese Filling:
-8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
-⅓ cup sugar
-1 teaspoon lemon juice
-1 teaspoon vanilla
Other Ingredients:
-12 egg roll wrappers
-2+ cups vegetable oil for frying
-¼ cup powdered sugar for dusting
Directions:
Blueberry Filling:
In a saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and 4 tablespoons of water. Cook over medium heat until the blueberries burst and release their juices.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining 3 tablespoons of water with cornstarch until smooth. Add this mixture to the blueberry sauce and cook until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool.
Cream Cheese Filling:
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
Assemble:
Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Spread a layer of the cream cheese mixture in the center, then top with a spoonful of blueberry filling.
Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold the sides over the filling, and roll up tightly. Repeat with remaining wrappers and fillings.
Fry:
In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Drain on paper towels and dust with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy!
