I just created these dreamy peach cobbler cheesecake egg rolls that combine everything wonderful about dessert. The crispy wrapper gives way to creamy cheesecake and spiced peaches making each bite pure bliss. Perfect for gatherings or when you want to treat yourself to something special.

Picture biting through that crispy shell into sweet peaches and velvety cheesecake filling. The warm cinnamon and vanilla blend perfectly with juicy fruit while that dusting of cinnamon sugar adds the perfect finish. These treats disappear fast at my house.

Frequently Asked Questions
- → Can I use canned peaches instead of fresh?
Yes, canned peaches work great. Just drain them well and dice them up. They're already soft, so they might need less cooking time than fresh peaches.
- → How far ahead can I make these?
It's best to serve these right after frying while they're crispy. You can prep the fillings a day ahead and assemble just before frying.
- → Can I bake these instead of frying?
While frying gives the best crispy texture, you can brush them with oil and bake at 400°F for 12-15 minutes, turning halfway through.
- → Can I freeze these egg rolls?
You can freeze them before frying. Wrap individually and freeze up to 3 months. Fry straight from frozen, adding 1-2 minutes cooking time.
- → Why did my egg rolls break open while frying?
Make sure not to overfill them and seal the edges well with water. Also, keep the oil at 350°F - if it's too hot, they can burst.
