I was sent a kit from Nasoya and asked to create something that would be good to share at a holiday party. When I was first asked, I had no idea what I’d want to make. I’ve made taco cups with their products before and loved those. They also sent me an idea to make eclair cups and I think I may make those for Christmas. I wanted to try something that I’ve never done before, though, something I’d never even seen done before! Remember that chocolate cake I showed you earlier this week? I decided I was going to make fried chocolate cake egg rolls out of it!
I think this may have been my best idea yet! Not only do the egg rolls have moist (sorry if you hate that word) chocolate cake in a crispy shell, but it also has cream cheese frosting inside that just pulls it all together! I even drizzled a little over the top. I just can’t describe how good these chocolate cake egg rolls are.
Look at that yummy frosting on the inside! Writing this post is making me hungry! I was good and only had one of these bad boys. My husband has himself convinced that I’m making these for Christmas. We will see how that goes. My kitchen always gets mighty crowded with a ton of food when I host. I don’t know if I have room to get these done.
Fried Chocolate Cake Egg Rolls
Ingredients
- baked chocolate cake
- Nasoya Egg Roll Wraps
- Oil for frying
Frosting
- 8 ounces unsalted butter softened
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
-
First make the frosting by beating together the butter and cream cheese with an electric mixer.
-
With the mixer on low speed, add the powdered sugar a cup at a time until smooth and creamy. Beat in the vanilla extract.
-
Put frosting in piping bag or plastic baggy with a corner cut.
-
Prepare cake according to box directions. Let cool to room temperature, then cut the cake in half, then cut the two halves into 1 inch slices to make little rectangles.
-
Heat 3 inches of oil to 350 degrees F.
-
Place a rectangle of cake in the center of the egg roll wrapper.
-
Squeeze a line of frosting next to the cake on the egg roll wrapper.
-
Dab your finger with a little water and run it along the edges of the egg roll wrapper.
-
Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper up and over the cake, then fold in the right and left sides. Roll the egg roll away from you to seal it up.
-
Repeat with the remaining cake rectangles.
-
Fry in the hot oil for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
-
Remove from oil to paper towels to drain.
-
Optional: drizzle with more frosting.
I’m not a big fan of fried fair food, but I can see this one taking off. I can say I’m a little proud of this recipe! 🙂 What would you make with some Nasoya egg roll or won ton wraps? I think I can have some fun coming up with new recipes using them!
Those look AMAZING! I should probably NOT make them, though, because I don’t think I’d share! 😉
These sound too good to be true! I would probably eat them all myself!
I may have just licked my screen! These are so not good for my diet but I’d be willing to go to the gym extra just so I could eat more!
This sounds amazing! I wish I had some right now.
I normally don’t go for fried things like Oreos and such, but this is so creative and holy cow does it look good! I totally want to try this! I’m hoping I can find those Nosoya wraps here in Italy at my commissary!
This really cements why dessert is my favorite meal of the day! These look delicious. I know they’d be a hit at my house, especially as we get closer to the spring/summer when we go to the fair. Gimme fried everything!
I have to have these, they look crazy good. Such a cool recipe idea!
OMG these sound so amazing! And what a great idea. I will have to make these next time we have people over!
Seriously are you trying to break my computer with drool. This is right up my sweet tooth alley.
What a creative idea! I never would have thought of making chocolate cake eggrolls. I’m sure they’d be a hit!
Oh wow these look so good! Like something you would only get at a restaurant – pinning this one!
These look yummy. Not sure I have it in me to make these, I might eat them all. lol
Oh man, that would totally kill my diet. I’d love that stuffed with cheesecake and white cake!
Hmm you may be on to something there!
I love fair food! and having something like this makes it feel like fair time is still happening! I’d like to try it!!!
