Prepare the Cheese: Cut the Mozzarella Cheese into stick shapes and place them in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Set up Breading Station: Place Flour in a shallow dish, beaten Eggs in a second dish, and crushed Hot Cheetos mixed with Panko Bread Crumbs in a third dish.
Coat the Cheese Sticks: Dredge each frozen mozzarella stick in Flour, then dip in Egg, and finally coat thoroughly with the Hot Cheeto mixture. Repeat for a thicker coating.
Fry the Sticks: Heat Vegetable Oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Carefully fry the mozzarella sticks in batches for 30-60 seconds, or until golden brown and crispy.
Drain and Serve: Remove the fried mozzarella sticks and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with Ranch Dressing.
