Directions

  1. Combine mozzarella cheese, Gruyere cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, onion soup mix, and rosemary in the bowl of a food processor, process until smooth, about 30 seconds.

  2. Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Spoon cheese mixture into the dish, smoothing with a spatula. Freeze until solid, at least 1 hour.

  3. Pour flour into a shallow dish. Beat 4 eggs in a small bowl. Pour bread crumbs into a separate shallow dish.

  4. Lift the cheese mixture out of the dish and, working quickly, cut in half. Cut into twenty 3/4-inch wide rectangles.

  5. Press cheese rectangles into flour, tapping to remove excess. Dredge in beaten eggs and press into bread crumbs until evenly coated. Transfer coated cheese mixture to a plate.

  6. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  7. Lower coated cheese mixture, 3 or 4 at a time, carefully into the hot oil, fry until cheese sticks are golden brown, about 1 minute. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
