State Fair Crescent Cheese Curds

• servings: 8
• active time: 15 min
• total time: 25 min

Ingredients

4 cups vegetable oil

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Original Crescent Dough Sheet

8 oz cheese curds, any variety (about 1 1/2 cups)

8 wooden skewers

Condiments, if desired (ranch dressing, Sriracha sauce, ketchup, flavored jam)

Directions

In deep fryer or 3-quart heavy saucepan, heat oil over medium heat to 350°F.

Unroll dough, and cut lengthwise into 4 strips, then cut crosswise into 8 rows, making 32 squares.

Roll piece of dough around each cheese curd (no larger than 1 inch); stretch dough, and press to seal edges and completely cover cheese curd.

Fry cheese curds 8 at a time, about 1 minute, turning occasionally until dough is completely cooked through and deep golden brown. Drain on paper towels, and keep warm.

Thread 4 cheese curds on each wooden skewer. Serve immediately with condiments.
