Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar

• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 10 egg roll wrappers
• Vegetable oil for frying
• Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Blueberry Filling:
   • In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice.
   • Cook over medium heat until the blueberries release their juices, about 5 minutes.
   • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to create a slurry.
   • Add the slurry to the blueberry mixture and cook for another 1-2 minutes until thickened.
   • Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
2. Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling:
   • In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
3. Assemble the Egg Rolls:
   • Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you (like a diamond shape).
   • Spread a spoonful of cream cheese mixture in the center of the wrapper.
   • Add a spoonful of blueberry filling on top of the cream cheese.
   • Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Use a little water to seal the edges.
   • Repeat with the remaining wrappers and fillings.
4. Fry the Egg Rolls:
   • Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot to 350°F (175°C).
   • Fry the egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
   • Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
5. Serve:
   • Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
   • Serve warm and enjoy!
