If you love cheese and you love fried food, then you’ve come to the right place. This recipe is one that you’ll have to force yourself to share with your family and friends. I live in Texas, so I’m in love with anything that’s fried. I know it’s cliché, but the south and southwest are known for fried food for a reason. We know how to do it right! One of my favorite fried foods to make is these delicious cheese balls. I love making them for parties, potlucks, movie nights, or just for snacks. When my kids were in school, I made them frequently for them and their friends. As soon as I made them, they disappeared. When you make them, you’ll see the same results. I guarantee it.
