First, take the cheese sticks out of the packaging and then slice them in half.

Pour one packet of the dry ranch into a small bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce into another bowl. Combine 2 tablespoons of dry ranch seasoning and the breadcrumbs in a third bowl.

Take the cheese sticks and coat them in the ranch mix. Then dunk them in the buffalo sauce. Next coat them with the breadcrumbs. Carefully add another layer of buffalo sauce and a second coating of breadcrumbs. Repeat using up all the cheese sticks. Place the breadcrumb coated cheese sticks in a parchment lined container, being careful to separate the cheese sticks so they don't freeze together. Place them in the freezer for at least an hour, and for up to 2 days.

Once you are ready to make the mozzarella sticks, heat the vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. I used just enough so that it was about 1 ½ inches deep. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees. Place the frozen mozzarella sticks in the oil, working in batches so you don't crowd the pan. The mozzarella sticks will take about 2 minutes to brown, once they have browned, place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Continue this process until all of the mozzarella sticks are fried.

Serve right away with a side of ranch dressing.
