Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package egg roll wrappers
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup jalapeños, diced (fresh or pickled)
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Mix together the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, diced jalapeños, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you. Place a spoonful of the cheese mixture in the center of the wrapper.
