I have no idea why I didn't read the reviews before trying this. They made a mess, and no one wanted to ever eat broccoli again at my house. Maybe this recipe was missing a step or needed different ingredients because it had so many things wrong with it, I'm not sure where to start!

tastes good, but they fall apart big time in oil. i think the oil is way too hot or something is lacking in the recipe to hold them together better. had 1 that tried to stay together. NOW I READ THE REVIEWS! DUH!

Despite all of the bad reviews about this recipe, I tried it anyways. I used Velveta cheese with bacon bits mixed in instead of plain cheddar thinking that would melt and form better. I dipped the floret's in the cheese one-by-one, and put them on waxed paper to cool a bit and congeal before rolling them in the bread crumbs. They looked great before they went into the oil. They eneded up being a disaster! The cheese all but burned, they all ended up clumped together, even though I only had them in the fryer a mere 3 minutes, the bread crumb/cheese mixture ended up being the color of oreos. Huge waste of time and money, next time I'll just buy the convenient pre-made ones in the freezer.

I hate to say it, but this recipe was awful. Once I put these in the hot oil, they fell apart. The bread crumbs became separated from the broccoli balls, and turned into clumps of fried crumbs. Everything else just turned into an oily mass of cheese. There is nothing holding these things together. Don't waste your time.

This recipe wasn't awful but it wasn't great. I made it twice, once following the recipe exactly and the second time I substituted fresh broccoli in place of the frozen broccoli. The second time around it was crispy and tasty. The frozen broccoli lacks flavor and leaves you with soft blobs of battered broccoli. The fresh broccoli works much much better.

Just batter the broccoli, deep-fry, then dip in a cheese fondue.

This recipe must be missing a step or ingredient or several. It was the biggest mess. I wish that I would have read the review before wasting my money and time.
