While deep frying provides the crispiest texture, you can bake the egg rolls at 425°F for about 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through, though they may not be as crispy as the fried version.

Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh blueberries

- 10 egg roll wrappers
Sweeteners and Flavor Enhancers:
- 1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cooking Ingredient:
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
- Whip the filling by blending cream cheese with sugar and vanilla until velvety and uniform, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Delicately incorporate whole blueberries into the cream cheese mixture, maintaining their structural integrity to prevent mashing.
- Position an egg roll wrapper diagonally on a clean surface, creating a diamond shape for optimal wrapping technique.
- Centralize a modest portion of the cream cheese and blueberry blend precisely in the wrapper’s middle section.
- Execute a precise folding technique: lift the bottom point over the filling, compress sides inward, and roll tightly, utilizing water as an adhesive to seal the edges securely.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan to an optimal temperature, creating a consistent cooking environment around 350°F.
- Gently submerge egg rolls into the hot oil, introducing them in small batches to maintain temperature stability.
- Rotate egg rolls periodically, achieving a uniform golden-brown exterior with a crisp texture, approximately 2-3 minutes per side.

- Allow the sauce to cool slightly, enhancing its structural integrity.
- Garnish the egg rolls with a delicate dusting of powdered sugar for an elegant finish.
