Cheesy Egg Roll Recipes 

When it comes to comfort food, few things rival the golden crunch of a freshly fried egg roll — especially when it’s packed with melted cheese and bold fillings. Cheesy egg rolls are a creative twist on the traditional recipe, and they open the door to all kinds of savory combinations. Whether you're hosting a party, whipping up an after-school snack, or just satisfying a craving, these three cheesy egg roll recipes will deliver gooey satisfaction in every bite.

1. Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls

Spicy, creamy, and ultra-crispy, these Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls bring the bold flavor of your favorite wings wrapped in a crunchy shell.

Ingredients:

2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)

1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)

1/4 cup chopped green onions

12 egg roll wrappers

Vegetable oil for frying

Ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, cream cheese, shredded cheese, green onions, and blue cheese if using. Mix until fully combined.

Place an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface in a diamond shape. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of filling into the center.

Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Seal the edge with a little water.

Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry egg rolls in batches until golden brown, 3–4 minutes per side.

Drain on paper towels and serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing.

3. Cheesy Spinach Artichoke Egg Rolls

Creamy spinach and artichoke dip gets a crispy upgrade in this vegetarian-friendly recipe. These egg rolls are elegant enough for a holiday appetizer but comforting enough for any day of the week.

Ingredients:

1 cup chopped spinach (fresh or frozen and drained)

1 cup canned artichoke hearts, chopped

4 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 garlic clove, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

12 egg roll wrappers

Vegetable oil for frying

Marinara or creamy garlic sauce for dipping

Directions:

In a bowl, mix together cream cheese, sour cream, spinach, artichokes, garlic, Parmesan, mozzarella, salt, and pepper until creamy and well combined.

Place about 2 tablespoons of filling in the center of an egg roll wrapper.

Fold and roll tightly, sealing the edge with water.

Fry at 350°F until golden brown and crisp, 3–4 minutes per side.

Let cool for a minute or two before serving with your favorite dip.

Why You’ll Love It:

If you're a fan of spinach artichoke dip, you’ll adore this recipe. The creamy, cheesy filling oozes out of the crunchy wrapper for the perfect combination of texture and flavor. It’s a great way to sneak in some greens without sacrificing indulgence.

Tips for Perfect Cheesy Egg Rolls

Seal well: A damp finger helps seal the edge of the wrapper to prevent leaks during frying.

Don’t overfill: Too much filling will make rolling difficult and can lead to bursts during frying.

Control oil temperature: Keep your frying oil around 350°F. Too hot and they’ll burn outside before the cheese melts. Too cool and they’ll get soggy.

Drain well: Always rest egg rolls on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil and preserve crispiness.

Air fryer option: Brush egg rolls lightly with oil and air fry at 375°F for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Dipping Sauce Ideas

What’s a cheesy egg roll without a great dip? Pair each type with a flavor-boosting sauce:

Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls: Ranch, blue cheese dressing, or creamy jalapeño dip.

Bacon Cheeseburger Egg Rolls: Classic burger sauce (ketchup + mayo + mustard), garlic aioli, or BBQ sauce.

Spinach Artichoke Egg Rolls: Warm marinara, garlic butter dip, or lemon herb yogurt sauce.

Cheesy egg rolls are the kind of indulgent, creative snack that brings everyone to the table. With their crispy exterior and gooey, flavorful fillings, these recipes combine the best of comfort food and fun fusion cooking. Whether you're in the mood for spicy buffalo chicken, savory bacon cheeseburger, or creamy spinach and artichoke, there's a cheesy egg roll here to suit your craving.

Ready to impress guests at your next get-together or just spice up your dinner routine? Grab a pack of egg roll wrappers and start experimenting. The possibilities are endless — as long as there’s cheese involved.
