Best Chocolate Banana Eggrolls With Cinnamon Cream Recipes

CHEESECAKE EGG ROLLS

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese and sugar in a bowl until smooth. Stir in vanilla extract. Thin filling with a little milk if it appears too thick; it should be the consistency of jelly.
• Lay out 1 egg roll on a flat work surface. Add about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese filling down the middle. Sprinkle a few chocolate chips on top. Brush edges of the wrapper with water. Fold in sides and roll up, pressing in edges to seal. Place seam side-down on a plate. Repeat with remaining wrappers, filling, and chocolate chips.
• Heat oil in a deep saucepan over medium heat. Fry egg rolls in batches until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

CHOCOLATE BANANA "EGGROLLS" WITH CINNAMON CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Lay a phyllo sheet lengthwise on a large work surface and spray it with cooking spray. Top the sheet with another phyllo layer and spray it again. Cut the sheet in half from top to bottom. Repeat the process with the 2 remaining phyllo sheets. (You will have 4 phyllo rectangles lying vertically on the work surface.) Sprinkle a quarter of the chopped chocolate along the bottom edge of each phyllo rectangle.
• Halve the banana lengthwise and cut each half into two pieces. Lay a piece, cut side down, on top of the chocolate on the bottom edge of each phyllo rectangle. Sprinkle a little brown sugar over the banana. Fold about an inch of the side edges of the phyllo over the ends of the banana, and then roll the packet to form an eggroll shape. Repeat with the remaining bananas and transfer them to the baking sheet. Spray each roll with a little more cooking spray, then sprinkle a little cinnamon over each. Bake until golden brown and crisp, about 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
• Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, whisk the cream, brown sugar, and a couple dashes of cinnamon together until the brown sugar dissolves. Continue whisking until the cream thickens and begins to hold soft peaks. Transfer to a small bowl and sprinkle a little more cinnamon on the top.
• To serve, cut the eggrolls in half diagonally and place on a platter with the cream "dipping sauce."

CHOCOLATE COOKIE CRUST BANANA CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust:
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Melt butter and sugar together in a saucepan over medium heat. Gradually add cookie crumbs and stir to combine well. Press crumb mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake crust 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely.
• For filling:
• Heat the milk over medium heat until warmed, but not boiling. Beat the yolks in a large bowl. Slowly whisk the warm milk into the yolks and add the vanilla. Whisk sugar, cornstarch, and salt together in heavy medium saucepan. Over medium heat, gradually whisk in the egg, milk, and vanilla mixture to the dry ingredients until custard thickens and you can see the tracks from the whisk in the bottom of the pan, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer custard to large bowl and fold in bananas; cover bowl with plastic wrap and cool custard completely in refrigerator, about 1 1/2 hours.
• When custard has chilled, make topping by whipping cream with sugar and vanilla in a mixer at high speed until soft peaks form. Fold in most of the remaining chocolate cookie crumbs, reserving a few for garnish.
• Stir custard to loosen, if necessary. Spread over bottom of prepared crust. Top with whipped cream mixture. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Scatter remaining chocolate crumbs over top just before serving.
