Best served hot and fresh for maximum gooey goodness.

Pair with marinara, ranch, or spicy mayo for dipping.

Not recommended for long storage, but you can prep cheese cubes ahead and fry just before serving.

Variations

Extra Crunchy: Roll the egg-coated cheese in breadcrumbs before frying.

Spicy Kick: Add a dash of chili flakes or cayenne to the egg whites.

Cheese Swap: Try mozzarella, pepper jack, or gouda for a different flavor twist.

FAQ

Q: Can I bake these instead of frying?
Yes—bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 8–10 minutes, but they won’t be quite as crispy.

Q: Can I use whole eggs instead of just whites?
Yes, but egg whites help keep the coating light and less eggy.

Q: How do I stop the cheese from leaking?
Freeze the cheese cubes for 10 minutes before frying to keep them firm.
