Instructions

Cook Macaroni according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Prepare BBQ Bacon: Cook Bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels. Toss with BBQ Sauce.
Make Mac & Cheese: In a large saucepan, melt Butter over medium heat. Whisk in Flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
Gradually whisk in Milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.
Reduce heat to low and stir in Cheddar Cheese until melted and smooth. Season with Salt and Pepper.
Combine Macaroni and BBQ Bacon into the cheese sauce. Mix well.
Assemble Eggrolls: Place about cup of Mac & Cheese mixture onto each Eggroll Wrapper. Brush edges with beaten Egg.
Fold in the sides of the wrapper, then roll up tightly. Seal the edges with the egg wash.
Heat Vegetable Oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
Fry Eggrolls in batches for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
Serve immediately.
