Fried pickles with a kick! The cayenne may seem over the top but the Cheetos® lose some of their heat in the oil so you've got to trust me on this one. Dip in ranch dressing if desired.

Step 1
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Place beaten egg in a flat dish.
Step 3
Place Cheetos® and cayenne in a food processor. Pulse until crumbs are achieved. Pour into a separate bowl.
Step 4
Dip a pickle slice in the egg and coat with Cheetos® crumb mixture. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining pickle slices.
Step 5
Fry pickle slices in the hot oil, working in batches, for 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and let sit for 2 minutes for final crisping.
