Ingredients
  

  • 8 egg roll wrappers
  • 1 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 –3 jalapeños finely chopped, seeds removed if less spicy desired
  • 4 strips cooked bacon crumbled
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Oil for frying

Method
 

  1. In a bowl mix cream cheese, cheddar cheese, chopped jalapeños, bacon, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
  2. Place an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface and add about 2 tablespoons of filling in the center.
  3. Fold the sides and roll tightly, sealing the edge with a little water.
  4. Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat.
  5. Fry the egg rolls for 3–4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  7. Serve warm with ranch, sour cream, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Use gloves while chopping jalapeños to avoid skin irritation.
  • For a milder flavor remove all jalapeño seeds and membranes.
  • You can also bake them at 200°C (400°F) for 12–15 minutes instead of frying.
  • Air frying at 190°C for 8–10 minutes also works well for a lighter option.
