List of Ingredients

Deep-Fried Cheesecake
Yield: 30 servings

. 1 SYSCO Imperial prepared cheesecake
. 30 Jade Mountain Oriental spring roll wrappers
. Egg wash (whisk 1 SYSCO egg with 1 cup Wholesome Farms milk)
. SYSCO vegetable oil, as needed
. SYSCO Imperial/McCormick cinnamon sugar, as needed




Recipe

1. Cut already-baked cheesecake into uniform pieces approximately 1 x 3" in
size. One large cheesecake will produce about 30 slices for deep frying.
2. Lightly moisten each spring roll wrapper with the egg wash. Blot of
excess egg wash with paper towel.
3. Place each piece of cheesecake in the middle of a wrapper. Fold top of
wrapper down over the cheesecake, and both sides towards the middle. Roll
each piece of cheesecake toward you until it is completely rolled up. Give
this "egg roll" a gentle squeeze to make sure the dough is sealed
completely.
4. Using a deep frying pan, heat at least 3 inches of oil to 365°F. Dip the
corner of one "egg roll" in the heated oil. If the oil sizzles, it is ready.
If not, heat the oil a little longer. When the oil is ready, gently release
"egg rolls" into the oil and allow to brown lightly, approximately 10
seconds.
5. Using a pair of tongs, remove the golden brown "egg rolls" from the oil.
Place each "egg roll" in a bowl of cinnamon sugar and coat well. Place
deep-fried slices of cheesecake on paper towels to cool slightly before
serving.
