Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup diced jalapeños (fresh or pickled)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- Oil for frying
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and diced jalapeños. Mix well until smooth.
- Using a small scoop or your hands, form the cheese mixture into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
- In three separate bowls, set up a breading station: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
- Dredge each cheese ball in flour, dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Repeat until all balls are coated.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the cheese balls in batches for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
