Chupaquesos ("suck cheese") are a cheesy dish invented by Howard Tayler in his webcomic, Schlock Mercenary. The basic idea is to fry cheese until it reaches a rubbery consistency, then cover that rubbery layer with cheese and toppings, then fold it into a tube.

Ingredients

  • About 3 oz (85 g) shredded "shell" cheese (e.g. cheddar)
  • About 1 oz (28 g) shredded "filler" cheese (e.g. parmesan, Monterey Jack)
  • Example toppings:
  • Bacon
  • Chopped cold cuts
  • Banana peppers
  • Chili peppers
  • Marinated mushrooms
  • Marinara sauce

Instructions

  1. 1
    In a medium-large non-stick or cast-iron skillet, sprinkle the "shell" cheese evenly. It will melt and bubble, and eventually form a layer of cheese.
  2. 2
    Once the underside is orange or brown colored, flip it over.
  3. 3
    Sprinkle the filler cheese down the middle, and put whatever toppings you want down the middle.
  4. 4
    Fold the shell over, and let it cook long enough to melt the filler cheese if desired.
  5. 5
    Serve and eat right away.
