Low-Fat Baked Cheese Sticks image

Make certain that the cheese sticks are very well coated with the egg/water mix and the cereal coating, or the cheese will flow out when baking, also let the cheese sticks sit out for 30 minutes to dry out the outer crumb coating before baking, the cornflakes must be very finely crushed or they will not adhear to the sticks, these steps are very important --- prep time includes drying out for 30 minutes.

Not bad, but not great. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

These cheese sticks were so good! I used a blend of mozzarella and cheddar cheese, and they were crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside.

Easy recipe, but the cheese sticks didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked.

These were a great appetizer for a party. I made them ahead of time and they were still crispy when I served them.

I'm not a huge fan of cheese sticks, but these were actually really good. The breading was crispy and the cheese was gooey.

These cheese sticks were a bit bland. I think I would add some garlic powder or onion powder next time.
