Ingredients

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

3 fresh jalapenos, thinly sliced

2 green onions, chopped

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, shredded cheddar, chopped jalapenos, bacon, green onions, and garlic powder until fully mixed.

2. Lay out an egg roll wrapper like a diamond. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the filling into the center.

3. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in both sides and roll tightly. Seal the top corner with a bit of water.

4. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C).

5. Fry egg rolls in batches for 3–4 minutes, turning to cook evenly, until golden and crispy.

6. Remove and drain on paper towels.

7. Serve hot with ranch, sour cream, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Make sure cream cheese is softened for easy mixing.

For a spicier version, leave jalapeno seeds in.

Use an air fryer for a lighter, oil-free version.
