Ingredients
Makes 8 egg rolls
8 egg roll wrappers
1 cup cherry pie filling
8 oz cream cheese, softened
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cooking spray
Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Make the Cream Cheese Filling
In a medium bowl, combine:
Softened cream cheese
Granulated sugar
Vanilla extract
Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 2: Assemble the Egg Rolls
Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface.
Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture in the center of the wrapper.
Add 1–2 tablespoons of cherry pie filling on top of the cream cheese mixture.
Step 3: Wrap and Seal
Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll it up tightly.
Use a bit of water to seal the edges securely.
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Step 4: Preheat the Air Fryer
Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (190°C) for 5 minutes.
Step 5: Air Fry
Lightly spray the egg rolls with cooking spray.
Place them in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they do not touch.
Air fry for 8–10 minutes, or until the egg rolls are golden brown and crispy, turning them halfway through cooking.
Step 6: Finish and Serve
Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly.
Dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
Tips for Perfect Cheesecake Egg Rolls
💡 Soften cream cheese completely – Makes mixing easier and filling smoother
💡 Don't overfill – Too much filling can cause bursting
💡 Seal edges well – Use water to ensure wrappers stick
💡 Don't skip the spray – Helps achieve that golden, crispy exterior
💡 Let them cool slightly – Filling is very hot when first removed
💡 Work in batches – Don't overcrowd the air fryer
