The Origin of Disney Cheeseburger Spring Rolls
Now, how did these glorious snacks find their way into the hearts (and stomachs) of Disney-goers everywhere? The story starts where most magical tales do—within the creative confines of Disney’s culinary minds. Imagine, if you will, a group of chefs, tired of the same old theme park fare, brainstorming ways to bring something fresh, yet comfortingly familiar, to the masses. They wanted to create something portable, fun, and utterly delicious. After a few late-night sessions and probably too many theme park coffee breaks, the Disney Cheeseburger Eggroll was born. The perfect fusion of an American classic with an Asian-inspired twist, these spring rolls quickly became a fan favorite, solidifying their spot in Disney snack history.
The Recipe Development
The first time I tried these spring rolls, I was immediately hooked. But the thought of driving hundreds of miles for a snack didn’t quite sit well with my gas tank (or my wallet). So, like any determined foodie, I set out to recreate them at home. After countless batches of trial and error, I finally nailed it—juicy, cheesy goodness wrapped in a crispy shell. The secret? A few tweaks to the classic cheeseburger fillings, a pinch of patience, and a whole lot of taste-testing (a tough job, but someone had to do it).

Disney Cheeseburger Spring Rolls
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 tbsp Adobo Seasoning
- American Cheese Slices
- 1 small onion finely diced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 10-12 eggroll wrappers
- Cooking oil for frying
- Optional: Burger Sauce this can be for filling, dipping, or both.
Instructions
- Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, season and cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Add Flavor: Stir in the diced onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the onions are softened and the flavors are well combined.
- Assemble the Spring Rolls: Lay an eggroll wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner pointing toward you. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture onto the center, and top with a slice of American cheese. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Seal the edge with a bit of water.
- Fry to Perfection: Heat the oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the spring rolls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.
- Serve: Let cool slightly and serve with your favorite dipping sauce (think ketchup, mustard, or a tangy burger sauce).
