Ingredient Notes
Before you start creating your batch of Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls, here are a few tips regarding the ingredients:
- Cream Cheese: Ensure the cream cheese is softened before mixing to achieve a smooth, lump-free filling.
- Lemon Zest and Juice: Adds a fresh burst of citrus that beautifully complements the sweet cherry filling, enhancing the overall flavor of the cheesecake.
- Cherry Pie Filling: Opt for high-quality or homemade cherry pie filling for the best flavor and texture.
- Egg Roll Wrappers: Make sure the wrappers are fresh; stale wrappers can tear easily and are less pliable.
