Step 6
Bring the mac and cheese out from the freezer. Use an ice cream scoop to take out the mac and cheese. and use a hand to form a ball shape. Repeat until finish all the mac and cheese.
Step 7
In a saucepan, add Vegetable Oil (1 L) . Heat the oil to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
Step 8
Meanwhile, prepare the mac and cheese balls. Dredge a ball in flour, and shake off excess flour. Then dip in beaten eggs, and coat in bread crumbs. Repeat one more time for double coating. Set aside and repeat with the other balls.
Step 9
Deep fry mac and cheese balls in heated oil for about 1-2 minutes in batches. Do not overcrowd the pot. Once finished, transfer to the paper towel-lined tray.
