Crispy Fried Cheese Balls 🧀🍴

Shape shredded cheese into small bite-sized balls (press tightly so they hold together).

Place cheese balls in the freezer for 20–30 minutes to firm up.

In one bowl, add flour. In another, beaten eggs. In a third, mix breadcrumbs with garlic powder, paprika, and salt.

Roll cheese balls in flour, then dip into eggs, then coat in breadcrumbs. For extra crunch, repeat egg + breadcrumb coating.

Heat oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C).

Fry cheese balls in batches for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Drain on paper towels and serve warm with dipping sauce.
