Battered bacon-wrapped cream cheese sticks

Freeze the cream cheese about half an hour so it does not melt.

Cut the cream cheese into sticks about the shape of the sausages, halving the thick pieces.

Wrap each stick in partially cooked bacon.

Roll it in the batter by hand, since dipping will not cover it, and fry briefly, turning.

Suggested improvement: cut the cream cheese, wrap it, then freeze the whole thing before battering.

Variation: roll a stick of cream cheese in crispy bacon pieces, push in a stick, freeze about an hour and a half and refrigerate half an hour, then dip in the batter and fry.
