Inspired by recipes given to me by my mother and others written on scraps of paper by people who have passed in and out of my life, I was encouraged to write this blog. I dedicate this blog to my family and friends. ~

Deep Fried Cheesecake
In case your haven't noticed, I really like the food at Montana's. There's nothing better than Apple Butter Ribs followed by Deep Fried Cheesecake. If you haven't tried it, this is a fantastic copycat recipe for it. Enjoy!
Deep Fried Cheesecake
Ingredients
Filling:
3 (8 oz) pkg. cream cheese (softened)
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Wrapping:
8 tortillas
1/4 cup milk
1 egg white
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
Topping:
1 cup caramel or chocolate sauce
1/4 cup icing sugar
2 cups ice cream (your choice)
4 cups peanut oil for frying (approximately)
Method
Preheat oven to 350 F.
In large bowl, beat together cream cheese and sugar until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add sour cream, flour, vanilla, cinnamon & lemon juice. Mix just until blended. Do not over mix.
Pour into large baking pan lined w/wax paper. Bake 20-25min, or until almost set. Remove from oven and cool to room temp.
Microwave tortillas 30 seconds then lay on counter.
Spoon an even amount of cheesecake filling into center of each tortilla.
In small bowl, whisk together milk and egg white. Brush each roll with egg mixture to seal.
Fold bottom of each tortilla over filling, then fold in each side and roll tortilla up to resemble a burrito.
Freeze at least 2hrs before frying.
In small bowl, combine sugar & cinnamon, then pour on plate.
Heat oil to 350 F.
Submerge rolls. Carefully place 1 or 2 frozen rolls into oil and fry 3-5 min. or until golden brown.
Remove from oil and drain just a little on paper towels. Gently roll in cinnamon sugar and dust with icing sugar.
Cut cheesecake at an angle and serve sauce and ice cream. Enjoy!
