Directions
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheese and cream cheese until well blended. This tremendous mixture will provide a rich and smooth filling for your cheese balls.
-
In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and garlic powder together. This dry blend helps create a lovely crust that will hold up during frying.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the cheese mixture until firm. The combination of cheese and flour will start to come together, forming a dough-like consistency.
-
Shape the mixture into small balls. This is the most exciting part where you get to create those delightful little spheres that will soon be deliciously crispy.
-
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Be sure to use enough oil so that the balls can float slightly while cooking—this helps them achieve that perfect golden brown color.
-
Fry the cheese balls until golden brown on all sides. This process should take about 3-5 minutes. Keep an eye on them, as they can quickly go from golden to overly crispy.
-
Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve warm to savor that tremendous burst of melted cheese when you take your first bite.
