Best Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls

Cherry cheesecake egg rolls are amazing!! Made in your air fryer or deep fry in oil, you just need 3 ingredients to make our dessert egg rolls. So easy and the best cheesecake filling treat that works great with any fruit pie filling you love.

Since we were “on a roll” this month making all different kinds of egg rolls I thought cherry cheesecake egg rolls would be amazing. They were a better dessert egg rolls than I had even imagined. You only need 3 ingredients. (originally published 2/16, affiliate links present)

Cheesecake Egg Rolls

I made pizza egg rolls the other day for dinner and they were so amazing that it was time for dessert!! I couldn’t believe it had taken me so long to try something different with egg roll wrappers. Dusted with powdered sugar to serve and cooked to a golden brown served warm, these are now made on a regular basis

  • Egg roll wrappers – refrigerated section in your grocery store
  • 1  can of cherry pie filling
  • 1 tub of marshmallow fluff
  • Block of cream cheese (I used low fat cream cheese this time and it was still amazing)

It’s a faster filling than our cheesecake in muffin tins recipe but both are delicious. This is no bake so it works better in this regard. I will show you below how to wrap that, beyond that you’re just frying them until crispy!!

  • I have had people use their air fryer for these dessert egg rolls but I haven’t tried that myself quite yet.

Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls Recipe

Get out a cutting board so you can put everything on it. Mix your room temperature pkg. of cream cheese with your tub of marshmallow creme and put your cherry pie filling in a bowl so you can begin filling. You will need a small cup of water too.

  • Here are the basic instructions on how to roll spring rolls which is essentially the same.
  • I also have step by step photos here as well as showing you in the video embedded in this post.

It really isn’t hard once you do 1 or 2 of them. Like I said too, you could use any can of fruit filling you love, I just had this one on hand but apple and blueberry are to die for too.

Now just put a bit of both fillings in like this on your egg roll wrapper.

  • Then fold the end up and over and the sides in
  • Roll it over once and put a bit of water at the end
  • At the end roll it all the way over so the end sticks together and the filling won’t come out

Tip: Do not overfill them. Just add filling to the middle as you see here. You want room on the ends to fold over so the contents don’t ooze out.

Strawberry Cheesecake Egg Rolls

You can also make our strawberry bread pudding but use cherry pie filling to taste similar to this! There’s a video in the recipe card below showing you how to make these dessert egg rolls and the entire recipe too:

In order to ensure you will get them golden brown and crispy on the outside without being mushy you need to make sure your oil is hot enough to begin with. If you don’t have a thermometer, just drop a little piece of egg roll in and see if it begins to fry immediately but isn’t too hot where it burns fast.

Then put each one in for about 1 minute per side or until they are lightly browned. You can use the rest of it to create a sort of cherry cheesecake dip on the side. I’m telling you these cherry cheesecake egg rolls are an amazing dessert!!

Cherry Pie Egg Rolls

How do you make egg rolls not soggy?

Biggest tip is to ensure your oil is hot enough before adding your rolls. Whether you are making dessert egg rolls like we show you here or for dinner you should heat oil to 350 degrees F. Then gently lower down your pieces and they should immediately fry to a golden brown in 1-2 minutes on each side. Oil that isn’t hot enough will get soaked in and make them soggy vs. crispy.

Should you pre cook egg roll filling?

If you are adding meat into the middle then yes you should precook it for the best results. If making egg roll desserts like we show you here that is not necessary. If you add raw ingredients you will need to cook it longer to get to a safe internal temp and by that time the wrapper may be too brown.

If you love these we made air fryer egg rolls too and they are really fun! Other easy desserts you should try:

You can even make peanut butter and jelly egg rolls using this same concept.
