Thank you so much for sharing this is a really well rounded recipe. I have a question please: I’m going to be prepping a lot of other food I need to save as much time as possible on the day of event. Do you think I would be able to bread the balls the night before cover and refrigerate and just fry them on the day of instead? If so, would I have to bring to room temperature before frying?

[@cheryljohnson8312]

Make sure the heat is off when you add the cheese. High heat will cause the cheese to break down and separate, especially cheddar.

[@cwlovewins7092]

Ok y'all I figured it out. Eat without worries. Eat while on threadmill. Make a little basket in center n snack n go. I refuse to give up on these recipes so this is my solution. Omggg look at that cheese. So dam good!!!
