Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cream cheese
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 3-4 jalapeños finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 24 egg roll wrappers
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar, diced jalapeños, garlic powder, and onion powder until well mixed.
  2. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface, with a corner facing you.
  3. Place 2 tablespoons of the jalapeño mixture about 2 inches from the corner.
  4. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the side corners, and roll tightly.
  5. Seal the edge with a bit of water, pressing to ensure it stays closed during frying.
  6. Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  7. Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  8. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels before serving.
