And with bacon…it takes this recipe to another level! You can try it with our without, that's what I did. Otherwise, fry these in a skillet with about 1/4 inch of oil.Ĭheesy, creamy and crispy on the outside, these are the perfect appetizer. Bring the oil to 350 degrees F and fry for about 4 to 5 minutes. So depending on what you prefer you, can deep fry in a large pot with about 4 inches of oil. It works and it tastes great but they are more crunchier and that's great too but you lose some of the creamy cheese texture. I think I prefer the taste better with olive oil but if you don't have any, you can use vegetable oil.Īnother note, I also tried deep frying these little puppies. I tried this recipe using both vegetable and olive oil. Using a spoon so your hands don't get as messy, cover the bite in breadcrumbs. They are easy to clean and are the perfect size for breading chicken for Chicken Parm or for making fried mac & cheese bites!ĭip the bite into the egg/milk mixture. I love using this set my sister got me for Christmas a couple of years ago. So instead of mac & cheese balls, they are more bites. Use a medium cookie scoop and then form into balls…I kind of flattened the tops and bottoms so they would be easier to cook. This is also when you would add bacon if you're using it. Just use cheddar cheese for fried mac and cheese. It's great for taste but not great for making fried mac & cheese. The milk cooks down fast.Īdd cheese, when I first tried this recipe, I added provolone (not called for in the original recipe). And as Diane warns, you need to stay close and don't walk away from the pot. It's a keeper of a recipe…and the way we will make stovetop mac and cheese from now on!Ĭook the macaroni in the milk. Second, I used this Stove Top Macaroni & Cheese Recipe from my friends, Todd & Diane. It works better with elbows but when I went to make this recipe the first time, I didn't have any. That's all I have to say, right?įirst off, let's ignore that I didn't use elbow macaroni the first time I made this recipe. Anyways, Ever since I saw Marc's recipe for Fried Mac & Cheese Balls, I have wanted to make them! And then Brandy and Rachel came up with the idea to celebrate macaroni and cheese in a big way and I had to do it…mmmm fried cheese. I know some don't consider Florida as part of the south sometimes though. Does all of that make me a Southern girl? I have lived in Florida since I was 7 years old and have considered myself a Florida girl for a longg time. I like fried cheese and I love butter to pieces. I say hi to everyone when I'm walking down the street and smile. I have come to the realization…that I'm a Southern girl.
