Ingredients
Scale
225 grams cream cheese, softened
100 grams shredded cheddar cheese
4 fresh jalapeños, seeded and finely diced
80 grams cooked bacon bits
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
12 egg roll wrappers
Vegetable oil, for deep frying
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, diced jalapeños, bacon bits, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well mixed.
Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface and place a spoonful of the filling in the center.
Fold the bottom of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to seal.
Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Remove from oil and drain on paper towels before serving.
Notes
For a spicier kick, leave some seeds in the jalapeños.
These egg rolls can be baked instead of fried for a healthier option.
