Our Take: These cheese sticks were fun and easy to make. You can serve them with marinara or sweet and sour sauce. We bake them, and we serve with sweet and sour sauce. You know they have big bags of cheese sticks at the grocery store. You bring them home, bake them, and they never taste good. Mainly, that's because they are baked, not fried. These are great baked as long as you eat them straight out of the oven. It is a Taste of Home Recipe, and they suggest frying them. It's a fun recipe for the kiddos because they can help wrap the string cheese.
We bake six at a time.
You will need six pieces of string cheese and six egg roll wrappers. We bake at 350 degrees for 17 minutes. Wrapping instructions are listed on the packaging.
The deep frying instructions are listed below from the Taste of Home Website.
