I am looking for a good, good recipe for Mozzarella sticks - preferably one where most of the sticks do not "fall apart" with cheese oozing out everywhere, LOL. My dh loves mozz sticks, and the last recipe I tried turned out to be a flop. So, I thought I would ask here. Thanks in advance!!

I found a recipe for little triangles like the ones at Olive Garden. Try searching for Copy-cat recipes from restaraunts, you may have some luck with those!
