Crispy Doritos-coated bites with gooey, melty cheese inside? YES, PLEASE! π These cheesy, crunchy, deep-fried delights are the ultimate snack or party appetizer.
π Ingredients:
12 mozzarella cheese sticks (or cheese cubes)
2 cups crushed Doritos (Nacho Cheese or your favorite flavor)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
2 tbsp milk
Β½ tsp garlic powder
Β½ tsp paprika
ΒΌ tsp salt
ΒΌ tsp black pepper
Vegetable oil, for frying
β³ Instructions:
1οΈβ£ Prep the Coating
Crush Doritos into fine crumbs using a food processor or by sealing them in a ziplock bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Pour into a shallow dish.
In another dish, mix flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In a third dish, whisk together eggs and milk.
2οΈβ£ Coat the Cheese
Dip each cheese stick into the flour mixture, coating evenly.
Dip into the egg wash, letting excess drip off.
Roll in crushed Doritos, pressing crumbs firmly to stick.
Repeat egg wash & Doritos coating for an extra crispy layer.
3οΈβ£ Freeze to Prevent Melting
Place coated cheese sticks on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 30-45 minutes (this keeps them from melting too fast when frying!).
4οΈβ£ Fry Until Crispy & Golden
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Fry 2-3 cheese sticks at a time for 30-45 seconds, or until crispy and golden.
Remove and drain on paper towels.
5οΈβ£ Serve & Enjoy!
Serve hot & gooey, with ranch, marinara, or queso dip!
