2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:
Prepare the Mac & Cheese Balls:
Scoop cooled mac & cheese into small portions (about 2 tablespoons each). Flatten slightly, add a pinch of mozzarella to the center, and roll into a ball. Repeat for all portions.
Set Up the Breading Station:
Place flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs in separate bowls. Season the breadcrumbs with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Bread the Balls:
Roll each mac & cheese ball in flour, dip in egg, and coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure they’re fully covered.
