Ingredients
2 (8-oz.) blocks cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
Pinch kosher salt
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
12 egg roll wrappers
Vegetable oil, for frying
1/4 c. granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
3/4 c. heavy cream
2/3 c. chocolate chips
Pinch kosher salt
Pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Preparation
Step 1In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, cinnamon, and salt until smooth. Beat in vanilla until fully combined.Step 2Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape and brush top 2 edges lightly with water. Spoon about 3 tablespoons cream cheese mixture into a line in the center. Roll up bottom half, tightly fold in sides, and gently roll upward to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.Step 3In a shallow bowl, mix together sugar and cinnamon. In a large skillet over medium heat, pour enough oil to reach 1" up the side of skillet. Heat until oil starts to bubble when a drop of water is added. Step 4Add egg rolls and fry until golden, a little over 1 minute per side. Transfer to bowl with cinnamon sugar and roll to coat each egg roll.Step 5For serving: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, microwave cream in 30-second intervals until it starts to bubble, watching carefully to avoid boiling over. Pour hot cream over chocolate and let sit 3 minutes. Add salt and cayenne, if using, and whisk until smooth.Step 6Serve egg rolls with warm chocolate dipping sauce.
