INGREDIENTES
- 2 cups vegetable oil, or more, as needed
- 3 cups well–chilled macaroni and cheese, homemade or store-bought
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 tbsp milk
- 1 ½ cups panko
- 4 oz CHEETOS® Crunchy FLAMIN’ HOT® Cheese Flavored Snacks
Instrucciones
- Clip a deep fryer thermometer to a large heavy bottom pan filled with oil over medium high heat.
- Line a baking sheet with paper towels; set aside.
- In a large bowl combine the crushed CHEETOS® Crunchy FLAMIN’ HOT® Cheese Flavored Snacks and panko crumbs.
- In a small bowl beat together eggs and milk until just combined.
- Scoop out about 2 heaping tbsp of mac and cheese and roll it into a 2-inch ball.
- Place formed ball on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mac and cheese.
- Working one at a time, dip mac and cheese balls in the egg mixture, then dredge it through the CHEETOS® Crunchy FLAMIN’ HOT® Cheese Flavored Snacks and panko mixture, pressing to coat.
- Working in batches as needed, slowly lower the balls into the hot oil and deep-fry until the panko crumbs are visibly golden and the coating is crispy, about 1 minute.
