Equipment

  • Deep fryer or large pan
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Tongs
  • Plate lined with paper towels
  • The right tools make this recipe a breeze. I used a deep fryer for crispiness, but a pan works too.
  • Remember to prep with parchment paper, and keep those tongs handy. 😉

Ingredients
  

  • Mozzarella sticks chilled
  • Wonton wrappers
  • Eggs beaten
  • Black sesame seeds for eyes
  • Vegetable oil for frying

I snagged my favorite mozzarella sticks from the store. With wonton wrappers, they transform into little ghosts!

Don't forget essentials like eggs and oil. A sprinkle of sesame seeds adds the perfect eye-catching detail. 👀

Instructions
 

Wrap each mozzarella stick with a wonton wrapper like a spooky ghost.

  • Seal the edges using beaten eggs.
  • Heat oil in your deep fryer or pan to 350°F (175°C).
  • Fry the wrapped sticks until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add sesame seeds for eyes before serving.

Frying transforms the wraps into crispy shells, encasing gooey cheese. They're best served hot from the fryer for that irresistible gooeyness. 🧀

    Notes

    Make sure wontons are sealed well to avoid leaks.
    Use heavy-duty paper towels to soak up excess oil.
    Pre-chill mozzarella sticks for the best results.
    These are my go-to tips for perfecting this recipe. If you like your mozzarella even cheesier, don't hesitate to double-wrap.
    Enjoy these haunted snacks and impress your guests! 🎉
