Ingredients

Egg Rolls and Filling

  • 6 – 8 egg roll wrappers (depending on how much filling you use)
  • 1 1/2 – 2 bananas
  • 6 – 8 teaspoons Nutella spread
  • 1 (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 8 teaspoons sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 cups whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)

For Frying and Garnish

  • Canola oil (for frying, about 1-2 inches depth in pan)
  • Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
  • Additional whipped topping (for serving)


Instructions

  1. Prepare Cheesecake Filling: Using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Sweetened Condensed Milk: Gradually mix in the sweetened condensed milk, scraping down the sides of the bowl to incorporate all ingredients evenly.
  3. Flavor the Mixture: Add the vanilla extract and blend thoroughly, then add the lemon juice and combine well.
  4. Fold in Whipped Topping: Gently fold in 2 cups of the whipped topping just until incorporated to keep the filling light and fluffy. Set the cheesecake filling aside.
  5. Heat Oil for Frying: Pour canola oil into a frying pan, about 1 to 2 inches deep, and heat over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
  6. Prepare Egg Rolls: Cut each banana into four pieces. Place one piece on each egg roll wrapper.
  7. Add Fillings: Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the cheesecake filling over the banana piece, then add 1 teaspoon of Nutella on top.
  8. Wrap Egg Rolls: Fold and roll the egg rolls following the package instructions, sealing the edges securely.
  9. Fry Egg Rolls: Carefully place the egg rolls in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking on all sides.
  10. Drain Excess Oil: Remove egg rolls from the oil and place them on paper towels to absorb excess grease and cool slightly.
  11. Garnish and Serve: Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm with additional whipped topping and a drizzle of Nutella if desired. Enjoy immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • You can adjust the amount of Nutella and cheesecake filling based on your preference.
  • Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to prevent soggy egg rolls; test with a small piece of wrapper first.
  • Use ripe but firm bananas so they hold shape during frying.
  • These egg rolls are best served warm for a crispy outside and creamy, melty inside.
  • Leftovers can be reheated briefly in a toaster oven to restore crispiness.
