What you will need
This recipe uses 9 simple ingredients that you can find at any grocery store:
- 8 sheets egg roll wrappers
- 0.5 cup heat treated all purpose flour
- 0.5 cup packed brown sugar
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter softened
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup mini chocolate chips
- 2 cups vegetable oil for frying
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar for dusting
Step by step instructions
Step 1: Make the Edible Cookie Dough
Beat softened butter and brown sugar together until fluffy. Mix in milk and vanilla extract. Stir in heat treated flour and mini chocolate chips until a soft dough forms. Do not use raw untreated flour as it is not safe to eat.
Step 2: Fill the Egg Roll Wrappers
Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond orientation. Place about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough in the center. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, fold in the sides, then roll tightly to the top corner. Seal the edge with a dab of water.
Step 3: Heat the Oil
Pour vegetable oil into a deep saucepan and heat over medium high heat until it reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature and do not let the oil overheat.
Step 4: Fry the Egg Rolls
Carefully lower egg rolls into the hot oil in batches of 2 or 3. Fry for about 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel lined plate.
Step 5: Dust and Serve
Allow the egg rolls to cool for 2 minutes before dusting generously with powdered sugar. Serve immediately while the outside is still crispy. Pair with a chocolate dipping sauce or vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
Easy substitutions

- vegetable oil → canola oil or peanut oil
- mini chocolate chips → peanut butter chips or white chocolate chips
- brown sugar → coconut sugar for a slightly less sweet flavor
Common mistakes to avoid
Watch out for these pitfalls that can affect your results:
- Using raw untreated flour which can contain harmful bacteria and is not safe to eat without heat treatment
- Overfilling the wrappers which causes them to burst open during frying
- Frying at the wrong temperature which results in greasy or burnt egg rolls
