Notes

These sticks are best enjoyed hot and fresh from the fryer. For added flavor, sprinkle some extra Dorito crumbs on top. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results. Avoid microwaving as it may make them soggy. You can customize the recipe by using different flavors of Doritos or cheeses.
