Ingredients
  

  • Mozzarella cheese sticks
  • Hot Cheetos
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Crush the Hot Cheetos in a plastic bag or using a rolling pin. You can also pulse them in a food processor for a finer texture.
  • Step 2: Beat the eggs in a shallow dish. Place the flour in a separate shallow dish.
  • Step 3: Dip the mozzarella sticks in the flour, then coat them in the beaten eggs, and finally roll them in the crushed Hot Cheetos. Make sure to coat the mozzarella sticks evenly.
  • Step 4: Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F.
  • Step 5: Carefully place the coated mozzarella sticks in the hot oil and fry for 1-2 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  • Step 6: Remove the mozzarella sticks from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
