Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Frying Pan
- Skillet
- Chef's Knife
- Blender
Ingredients
- 1 box Cake Mix
- 24 pieces Egg Roll Wrappers
- 3 cups Olive Oil for frying
- 1 large Egg lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1 tbsp Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Butter softened
- 4 oz Cream Cheese softened
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Heavy Cream
- 1 1/2 to 2 cups Powdered Sugar
- Chocolate Sauce to taste Chocolate Sauce optional
- Sprinkles to taste Sprinkles optional
Instructions
- Start by preparing the cake mix according to the package directions in two 8x8 square pans. Allow the cake to cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, cut the cake in half and slice those halves into rectangles about one inch wide.
- In a deep pan, heat about three inches of olive oil to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Lay one egg roll wrapper flat and place a rectangle of cake in the center. Dab your finger in the lightly beaten egg and run it along the edges of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the cake, fold in the right and left sides, and roll away from you to seal it tightly.
- Fry the sealed egg rolls in the hot oil for two to three minutes or until golden brown.
- While frying, combine sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Once cooked, roll the egg rolls in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- For the frosting, beat butter and cream cheese until fluffy, then add vanilla and heavy cream. Gradually add powdered sugar until fluffy.
- Drizzle the egg rolls with chocolate sauce and sprinkle with sprinkles if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- If you don't want to prepare all the egg rolls at once: freeze the leftover cake and save it for another day.
