Instructions
-
1. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Mix until smooth and well combined.
-
2. Lay out an egg roll wrapper, spoon a generous portion of the cream cheese mixture onto the center, and spread it in a line. Fold the sides of the wrapper towards the center and then roll it tightly, sealing the edges with a dab of water.
-
3. Heat cooking oil in a pan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the wrapped cheese cake rolls into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
-
4. Remove the fried rolls and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Dust the warm rolls with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.

5. Arrange the Cheese Cake Egg Rolls on a serving platter. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
