Pour Hot Cheetos in food processor and chop finely to bread crumb texture
Whisk eggs in a small bowl
4 eggs
Place flour and Hot Cheetos crumbs in plates – separately
8 oz Flamin Hot Cheetos, 2 cups flour
Position them from left to right — egg — flour — cheetos — plate
Dip cheese curds 4-5 at a time into egg, flour, egg, flour, egg and – finally – cheetos. It’s easiest to do this with a slotted spoon in the egg (I used a pasta spoon with the fingers and bigger holes) and then spoon around the dry ingredients. This will allow you to pick up the curds and allow the egg to drain.
8 oz cheese curds
Once all the curds are on the plate separated – NOT PILED – place them in the freezer for a minimum of 2 hours
Remove from freezer and spray with non-stick spray
Place into air fryer right away – one layer at a time – no touching – do not overcrowd!!!!
Heat at 350 for 2 minutes
Turn curds, spray again
Heat at 350 for 2 minutes
Remove gently and move to preheated 350 oven until all curds are done
This makes about 30 cheese curds – you can easily cut in half
Serve immediately with ranch
