Crispy fried jalapeño popper egg rolls with a cheesy, bacon-filled center. Perfect for game day or as a party appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 2–3 jalapeños, seeded and finely diced
  • 2 tbsp green onions, sliced (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 10 egg roll wrappers
  • 1 tbsp water + 1 tsp all-purpose flour (for sealing)
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • Optional for serving: ranch dressing, sour cream, or chipotle mayo

Instructions

  1. Make the filling: In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese, cheddar, crumbled bacon, diced jalapeños, green onions, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Assemble egg rolls: Place an egg roll wrapper in a diamond shape. Add about 2 heaping tablespoons of filling near the bottom third. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, fold in both sides, then roll tightly.
  3. Seal: Mix water and flour to make a paste. Brush a little on the top corner of the wrapper and finish rolling to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
  4. Fry: Heat 1–2 inches of oil in a deep skillet to 350°F. Fry egg rolls in batches for 2–3 minutes per side, turning until deep golden brown and crisp.
  5. Drain & serve: Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate. Serve hot with ranch or your favorite dip.

Notes

  • Adjust jalapeño quantity based on spice preference.
  • Ensure oil is hot enough for crispy egg rolls.
  • Serve immediately for best texture.
