🛒 Ingredients
For Filling
- 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup blueberry pie filling or fresh blueberries
For Rolls
- 10–12 egg roll wrappers
- 2 tablespoons water (for sealing edges)
- Oil for frying
Optional Toppings
- Whipped cream
- Powdered sugar dust
- Melted white chocolate drizzle
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Make the Filling
In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then mix again until fluffy. Fold in blueberries gently so they stay slightly whole.
2. Assemble Rolls
Lay one wrapper flat in a diamond shape. Spoon 2 tablespoons filling in the center. Fold bottom corner over filling, fold sides inward, then roll tightly. Seal edges with water.
3. Cook Until Crispy
- Fry: Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) and fry rolls 2–3 minutes until golden.
- Air Fry: Spray lightly with oil and cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes.
- Bake: Bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 12 minutes.
4. Serve
Let them cool slightly, then top with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or chocolate drizzle.
💡 Tips & Variations
- Use strawberries or cherries instead of blueberries for a flavor twist.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon for warm dessert notes.
- Want lighter rolls? Air frying reduces oil but keeps crisp texture.
- Chill filling for 20 minutes before rolling if it feels too soft.

❓ FAQs
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes. Assemble rolls and refrigerate up to 24 hours before cooking.
Can I freeze them?
You can freeze uncooked rolls and fry directly from frozen; just add 1–2 minutes to cooking time.
What if I don’t have egg roll wrappers?
Spring roll wrappers or thin pastry sheets work as substitutes.
These dessert rolls hit that perfect balance — crunchy shell, creamy center, fruity sweetness. Once you make them, you’ll probably keep a pack of wrappers and cream cheese ready just to whip these up anytime a sweet craving hits.
