Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 pickle spears
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup ranch dressing (optional, for dipping)

Instructions

  1. Dry the Pickles: Pat the pickle spears dry thoroughly using a paper towel to remove excess moisture, which helps the cheese adhere better during cooking.
  2. Preheat the Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until hot, ensuring an even cooking surface for the cheese.
  3. Form Cheese Circles: For each chickle, sprinkle about ¼ cup of shredded cheddar into the pan and quickly spread it into a circle roughly the width of one pickle spear using a spatula.
  4. Place Pickle on Cheese: Set one pickle spear onto the center of the melted cheddar circle. Let the cheese cook and bubble for about 1 minute until the bottom turns golden brown and crispy.
  5. Enclose the Pickle: Using two spatulas, gently fold the melted cheese over the pickle to completely wrap it, forming a long roll shape that seals the pickle inside.
  6. Finish Cooking: Continue cooking the cheese-wrapped pickle rolls, turning as needed, until the outside is a light golden brown and cheese is melted to your preference.
  7. Serve: Remove from heat and serve the viral chickles warm, accompanied by ranch or your favorite dipping sauce if desired.

Notes

  • For best results, use firm pickle spears to maintain shape during cooking.
  • The ranch dressing is optional but adds a creamy, cool contrast to the warm, crispy chickles.
