Step 1

Mix together the cream cheese, shredded pepper jack cheese, diced jalapenos, bacon bits, and sriracha sauce.

Remove cheese balls from the freezer. Dip in the flour mixture, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the bread crumbs mixture.

Step 7

Fry several bites at once for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown.

Step 9

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
