# Ingredients:
→ Blueberry Mixture
01 -
7 tablespoons water (use as needed in two parts)
02 -
2 cups fresh blueberries
03 -
⅓ cup granulated sugar
04 -
3 tablespoons cornstarch
05 -
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
→ Cheesecake Filling
06 -
8 oz of cream cheese, softened
07 -
⅓ cup white sugar
08 -
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
09 -
1 teaspoon lemon juice
→ Wrapping and Frying
10 -
12 egg roll wrappers
11 -
Vegetable oil for frying (at least 2 cups or enough to submerge)
12 -
¼ cup powdered sugar (for sprinkling)
# Instructions:
01 -
Add the blueberries, sugar, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 3 tablespoons of water to a small pot over medium heat. Stir as you cook until the blueberries start bursting open. In a separate bowl, whisk the rest of the water with the cornstarch until smooth. Pour this into your pot and cook while stirring until it gets thick. Once it’s done, set it aside to let it cool fully.
02 -
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese for a few minutes using an electric mixer until it’s fluffy. Add the sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice, and beat again for about 2 more minutes until it’s smooth and blended together nicely.
03 -
Take one egg roll wrapper at a time, placing a couple tablespoons of the cheesecake filling into the center, followed by a spoonful of the blueberry mixture. Wet the edges of the wrapper with a little water using your finger. Fold the sides in, then roll it up starting from the bottom, tucking it tight as you roll.
04 -
Heat up your oil in a deep skillet until it’s about 375°F. Carefully drop in a few rolls, making sure there’s space between them. Fry them for around 2-3 minutes per side or until they’ve turned a beautiful golden-brown. Take them out and lay them on paper towels to soak up the oil.

Before serving, dust those crispy rolls generously with powdered sugar. They're best eaten warm, while the outside is still crunchy and the fillings are soft and gooey!
