Texas Twinkies Egg Rolls (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Filling

01 - 1 pound smoked brisket, chopped
02 - 1 cup cream cheese, softened
03 - 1/2 cup pickled jalapeños, diced
04 - 1/4 cup barbecue sauce

→ Wrapper and Frying

05 - 12 egg roll wrappers
06 - Vegetable oil, for frying
07 - Honey, for drizzling

# Instructions:

01 - In a large bowl, mix together chopped smoked brisket, softened cream cheese, diced pickled jalapeños, and barbecue sauce until fully combined.
02 - Place one egg roll wrapper on a flat surface and spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of the brisket mixture into its center.
03 - Fold the sides of the wrapper inward, then fold the bottom corner over the filling and roll tightly to form an egg roll.
04 - Repeat the filling and rolling process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
05 - Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
06 - Carefully place the egg rolls into the hot oil without overcrowding. Fry each side for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
07 - Remove egg rolls from oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
08 - Drizzle warm egg rolls with honey and serve immediately.

# Notes:

01 - Adjust the quantity of jalapeños to control spiciness. For a healthier alternative, bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, brushing oil on wrappers beforehand.
