- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions
Preparation
- Cut the cheese sticks into the desired size.
- Set up a breading station with flour in one bowl, beaten eggs mixed with milk in another, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt and pepper in a third.
Breading the Cheese
- Dip each cheese stick first into the flour, then into the egg mixture, and finally into the breadcrumbs.
Frying
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large pan over medium heat.
- Fry the breaded cheese sticks until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
Notes
For extra crunch, double-dip the cheese sticks by dipping them in the egg and breadcrumbs a second time. Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to prevent cheese leakage. Freeze the breaded cheese sticks for about 30 minutes before frying to keep them intact.
