Bacon Jalapeño Popper Egg Rolls

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Filling:
   • In a large bowl, combine the crumbled bacon, diced jalapeños, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully incorporated.
2. Assemble the Egg Rolls:
   • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean, dry surface in a diamond shape (one corner facing you).
   • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the filling onto the center of the wrapper.
   • Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold in the left and right corners toward the center.
   • Roll tightly toward the top corner, sealing the edge with a dab of water to secure.
   • Repeat until all wrappers are filled.
3. Fry the Egg Rolls:
   • Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 350°F (180°C).
   • Carefully add 3–4 egg rolls at a time, avoiding overcrowding.
   • Fry for 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
   • Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
4. Serve:
   • Enjoy hot with ranch dressing, sweet chili sauce, or your favorite dip!

Tips:

• For extra spice, leave some jalapeño seeds in the filling.
• To bake instead of fry, brush with oil and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15–20 minutes, flipping halfway.

These crispy, creamy, and spicy egg rolls are the perfect party snack! 😋🔥
