Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 medium jalape?os seeded and finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 pkg egg roll wrappers
  • 1 cup oil for frying

Method
 

Prepare the filling
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped jalape?os, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.
Assemble the egg rolls
  1. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner pointing towards you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center.
  2. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to seal. Use a little water to help seal the edges.
Fry the egg rolls
  1. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the egg rolls, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  2. Remove the egg rolls and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve
  1. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or salsa.
