 Ingredients

Cheeseburger Filling

• 6 slices bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (sharp or mild)
• ¼ cup hot honey sauce (adjust to taste)
• Salt and black pepper, to taste

Wrapping & Frying

• 12 egg roll wrappers
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• Water (for sealing wrappers)

 Instructions (Step-by-Step)

1. Cook the Ground Beef

• Heat a skillet over medium heat
• Add ground beef and cook until fully browned and cooked through
• Break the meat apart as it cooks
• Drain excess grease and remove from heat

Well-drained beef keeps the egg rolls crispy.

2. Make the Cheeseburger Filling

In a large mixing bowl, combine:

• Cooked ground beef
• Crumbled bacon
• Shredded cheddar cheese
• Hot honey sauce

Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.

3. Assemble the Egg Rolls

• Lay an egg roll wrapper flat (diamond shape)
• Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of filling into the center
• Fold the bottom corner over the filling
• Fold in the sides
• Roll tightly upward

Dip your finger in water and seal the edge of the wrapper.

4. Heat the Oil

• Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or deep skillet to 350°F (175°C)
• Oil should be hot but not smoking

5. Fry the Egg Rolls

• Carefully place egg rolls into hot oil (do not overcrowd)
• Fry for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy
• Remove with tongs and drain on paper towels

6. Serve & Enjoy

• Serve hot and crispy
• Drizzle with extra hot honey or serve it on the side for dipping

Best enjoyed fresh and crunchy!
