Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or pepper jack for extra heat
  • ½ cup cooked bacon crumbled
  • 2 whole jalapeños finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

  • 2 inches vegetable oil for frying
  • to taste salt or garlic/onion salt

  • 1 cup ranch dressing or sour cream

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • deep skillet
  • Slotted spoon

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, cooked bacon, and chopped jalapeños. Add garlic powder and onion powder, mixing until creamy and well-blended.
  2. Lay an eggroll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the filling onto the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly upwards to seal.
  3. In a deep skillet, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to confirm the temperature.
  4. Add the assembled eggrolls to the hot oil in batches, frying for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown and crispy all over.
  5. Transfer the fried eggrolls onto a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while still hot.
  6. Serve warm with ranch dressing or sour cream for dipping.
