    So crispy! I love them with ranch too! 😍

    Easy and delicious! I dipped mine in ranch instead of marinara. Yum!

      Ew ranch? No way! Marinara is the only way to go for cheese sticks. Just saying…

      Ranch sounds like a fun twist! I’ve never thought of that. I usually stick to marinara, but I might have to try it your way next time!

    I don’t know, frying cheese seems a bit odd. Aren’t they gonna get too oily? Anyway, tried it and they were okay.

      I totally get what you mean! Frying cheese does sound weird at first. But if you drain them well, they shouldn’t be too oily. I love these things! They’re so good. Definitely worth a try again!

      Nah, it ain’t that odd. It’s like the ultimate cheese snack! If you do it right, they won’t be oily at all. Just gotta make sure to let them sit on the towel after frying.

    Never thought fried cheese sticks could be this easy. I’m no chef, but I made it work lol.

    Um, actually why do you use flour if you bread it after? Seems unnecessary to me.

      I dunno, do they really taste good? Seems kinda basic. 🤔

    I followed the recipe, but they came out too oily. Maybe I used too much oil? Not sure if I’ll try again.

    Why not just buy them frozen? Seems like a lot of work for cheese sticks!

    1. User avatar siu.willms says:

      Buying them frozen is easy, but nothing beats the taste of homemade! You might be missing out!

    Sorry, but this just sounds too fatty. Cheese and oil? Not my thing. 😒

    Super easy to make! I used cheddar instead of mozzarella and it turned out great! Yum!

      How can you use cheddar instead of mozzarella? They’re not the same! Not sure if I would like it.

    2. 4 stars
      Cheddar sounds like a great twist! I’ve never thought of that. Did you add any spices?

  17. 2 stars
    I tried these and they just fell apart in the oil. Not good.

  18. 3 stars
    Just cheese and in oil? I don’t know if it’s worth the calories, but my kids loved them, I guess.

      These are like the best snack ever! My kids go crazy for them and I don’t even feel guilty. Just enjoy life!

      Sure, they taste good, but it’s just cheese in oil. Seems unhealthy for kids, might skip this one.

  19. User avatar jack.green says:

    Fried cheese? Count me in! But i think they could use more spices.

  20. 1 star
    Horrible! Mine burned right away. Should there be a temp for the oil? I need to do better research!

    1. User avatar mona.reynolds8 says:

      I don’t think you’re supposed to heat the oil too much, or else things will burn. You should test it first with a little bit of breading to see if it sizzles! Good luck next time!

    2. 3 stars
      Burnt? Really? I make these all the time and never had that problem. Maybe your burner is too high? Just keep an eye on it!

  21. 3 stars
    I had a hard time getting them to stay together. Maybe too much flour?
