I tried this as a fun experiment with leftover Doritos from a picnic and it became an instant party hit. The double coating trick turns out reliably golden sticks every batch.
Ingredients
Crushed Doritos: Choose your favorite flavor for a bold coating Cool Ranch and Nacho Cheese bring classic snack shop vibes. Make sure the chips are crushed fine for even application.
Mozzarella cheese sticks: Go for whole milk mozzarella for ultimate gooeyness. Check for sticks that are uniform in size so all fry evenly.
Eggs: Beaten egg helps all layers stick and gives bounce in the crunch.
All purpose flour: Creates the dry base for the cheese so the egg coats well. I look for flour that is fresh and lump free.
Breadcrumbs: Give extra structure along with Doritos for a stable shell. Choose panko for even more crisp.
Vegetable oil: Pick a neutral high heat oil like canola or peanut for best frying results.
