## The Basic Recipe for Cheesy Snack Bites

### Ingredients:

* 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheddar for variation)
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 teaspoon baking powder
* 2 eggs
* 1/4 cup milk
* 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
* Salt and pepper to taste
* 1 cup breadcrumbs (for coating)
* Oil for frying (vegetable or canola)

### Instructions:

1. **Mix dry ingredients:** In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

2. **Add wet ingredients:** Beat the eggs and milk together, then add them to the dry mixture. Stir until you get a thick batter.

3. **Add cheese:** Fold in the shredded mozzarella (or cheddar) cheese until evenly distributed.

4. **Form the bites:** Using a spoon or your hands, form small bite-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter).

5. **Coat:** Roll each ball in breadcrumbs to coat them well. This helps create a crispy exterior when fried.

6. **Heat oil:** Heat oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat.

7. **Fry:** Carefully drop the balls into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Do this in batches to avoid overcrowding.

8. **Drain:** Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

9. **Serve:** Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces.

## Variations to Try

### Cheddar Version

Swap the mozzarella for sharp cheddar for a richer, tangier flavor. Cheddar melts well and adds a slightly crumbly texture inside the bites.

### Herb-Infused Bites

Add finely chopped fresh herbs like parsley, chives, or basil to the batter for a fresh flavor boost.

### Spicy Kick

Add 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or red chili flakes for a subtle heat.

### Gluten-Free Option

Use gluten-free flour and gluten-free breadcrumbs to make these safe for gluten-sensitive guests.

## Tips for Making the Best Cheesy Snack Bites

* **Use freshly shredded cheese:** Pre-shredded cheese can have additives that prevent proper melting. Freshly shredded cheese melts better and tastes fresher.

* **Don’t overcrowd the fryer:** Fry in small batches to keep the oil temperature consistent and ensure even cooking.

* **Test oil temperature:** The oil should be hot enough so that the bites fry quickly without absorbing too much oil. Around 350°F (175°C) is ideal.

* **Make ahead:** Prepare the batter and shape the bites ahead of time. Store them in the fridge and fry just before serving for freshest taste.

* **Use an air fryer:** For a healthier version, air fry the bites at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, shaking halfway through.
