I’d like to say this whole Cheetos thing has gotten out of control, but this recipe not only makes sense to do, but also is a great recipe for mozzarella sticks substituting flaming hot Cheetos in place of Italian bread crumbs. I sure hope you lovely people at home try this one out because it is quite possibly the best mozzarella stick I’ve ever had.
Grind up Cheetos (Puffs work better)
Dry Mix: 1 Cup Flour, 1 tsp Cayenne, 1 tsp Paprika, 1 tsp Chili Powder
Wet Mix: 1 Egg, ½ Cup Milk, ¼ Cup Franks Red Hot
Coat Cheese Stick in Dry, then in Wet, back in Dry, back in Wet and then into the Hot Cheetos
Freeze these for 30 minutes minimum
Deep Fry @ 350°F for 2 minutes and 34 seconds
This should be the perfect amount of time if you're exactly 350°F
