- 1 cup plain breadcrumbs

First thing you do is cut the side of the mozzarella into a thin piece. Next you cut that into a 3×3 stick. After each stick you make put it into a pile. If there are any extra pieces that are too small or deformed, its your choice to cook them with the rest of the batch.

Add Dry Ingrediants Together

Into a little bit of a larger bowl you first add your 2 eggs. Next you add your 3 tbsp of milk into the bowl. After you add the egg and milk, you whisk them together. Make sure to whisk them throughly or it could become clumpy and runny.

Add Breadcrumbs

Next, add your 1 cup of breadcrumbs into a third bowl. Make sure to pour them slowly so you dont spill any.

Assembling the Sticks

First grab a baking sheet (size depending on the amount your making) and line with wax paper. Then tip your mozzarella stick into the flour mixture, egg mixture, and breadcrumbs. Then repeat with the rest. After each one is done place it on the baking sheet.

Put Sticks in Freezer

After you are done placing all the sticks on the baking sheet, place it in the freezer for about 1:30. Or until hardened

Enjoy!

Place them on a plate after cooking and enjoy!

Conclusion

Overall they tasted good. I could have added more breading to them, because on some of them the cheese melted out.
