Method written by CompKitchen from the ingredient list. Not the original author's method, not kitchen-tested.

1. Make the cinnamon sugar for coating: stir the 3/4 cup white sugar with the 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a shallow dish and set aside.

2. Combine the diced apples, 1/3 cup white sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and the 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook 5 to 7 minutes until the apples soften.

3. Stir the cornstarch into the 1 tablespoon water until smooth, add to the apples and simmer 1 minute until thickened. Stir in the 2 tablespoons caramel ice cream topping, then cool completely.

4. Beat the room-temperature cream cheese until smooth. Lay out an egg roll wrapper with one corner toward you and spread about 1 tablespoon of cream cheese over the center.

5. Spoon a portion of the cooled apple filling over the cream cheese. Fold the bottom corner up, fold in the sides, and roll tightly to seal the top corner with a dab of water. Repeat with the rest.

6. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the rolls in batches 1 to 2 minutes, turning until golden brown, then drain on paper towels.

7. While the rolls are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar until coated. Serve warm.
