Ingredients
- 2 cups crushed spicy Doritos
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, chili powder, garlic powder, and black pepper.
- Form the mixture into small bite-sized balls and freeze for 15–20 minutes to firm up.

- Coat each cheese ball in flour, then dip in egg, and roll in the Doritos-breadcrumb mixture.

- Fry the bites in batches for 2–3 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Remove and drain on paper towels.
