Bacon Wrapped Mozzarella Cheese Sticks
Mozzarella cheese sticks wrapped in crispy bacon are a fun and addictive snack for game-day! You will need to use pre-cooked bacon for this recipe so look for packages of it at the grocery store.
Ingredients
- 12 string cheese or mozzarella cheese sticks
- 36 strips pre-cooked packaged bacon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Starting at one end of a cheese stick, carefully wrap one strip of bacon around it, overlapping bacon halfway each time to help secure the bacon in place. Because the bacon is pre-cooked it will be a little harder to wrap, but the light pink and fat portions should still be pretty flexible. When you reach the end of your bacon, tuck the end into one of the folds to keep it from unwrapping. Repeat with 1-2 more strips of bacon until your cheese is completely covered, including ends of cheese.
- Place finished wrapped cheese stick on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining cheese and bacon. Bake in the oven for about 6-10 minutes, or until bacon is crisp and before cheese completely loses its form.
