Instructions

Step 1

Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper so the paper hangs over the sides of the pan.

Step 2

Stir together cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, crabmeat, green onions, powdered sugar, salt, and garlic powder in a bowl until combined. Transfer to the prepared pan, spreading to an even layer. Freeze for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Lift cream cheese mixture from the pan using the parchment paper. Cut the frozen block in half, then cut each half crosswise into 8 sticks (you will have sixteen 4x1-inch sticks.)

Step 4

Put flour in a shallow dish. Beat eggs and water together in a second shallow dish. Put panko in a third shallow dish.

Step 5

Dredge each cream cheese stick in flour; shake off excess. Dip into egg mixture, then lift up so excess egg drips back into the bowl. Press into panko to coat both sides. Place the breaded sticks on a baking sheet and freeze for 15 minutes.

Step 6

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).

Step 7

Add 1 1/2 inches of oil to a medium saucepan. Heat oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 8

Fry 3 or 4 sticks at a time until golden brown, about 1 minute. (Keep uncooked sticks in freezer until ready to fry.)

Step 9

Drain fried sticks on paper towels, then transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the preheated oven. Repeat to fry remaining sticks.
