The 12 Craziest Hot Cheeto Dishes

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at FSU chapter.

Flamin’ Hot Cheetos are heating up the scene by appearing in specialty dishes across the country. You can now enjoy them as a part of your favorite meals like tacos, pizza, mac and cheese, and even macarons.

1. Danmi Desserts

While a few recipes for Hot Cheetos Macarons already exist, Danmi Desserts based in Orange County, California, takes it to the next level using Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Limon. The sweetness of the macarons, mixed with the sour lemon flavor and spicy Cheetos makes for a unique flavor that’s difficult to find anywhere else.

2. Fatima’s Grill

These nachos at Fatima’s Grill, based in Downey, California, are insane. The Doritos Hot Cheetos Nachos comes with steak or chicken that’s drenched in melted cheese. Their Instagram has almost 43k followers and showcases their other Hot Cheetos creations that are just as outrageous as this one.

3. Drill’d Ice Cream Mixmasters

Hot ice cream may seem like a contradiction but this Hot as Hell ice cream flavor at Drill’d Ice Cream Mixmasters makes it a reality. They blend vanilla ice cream with Xxtra Flamin’ Hot Cheetos and top it with ground Cheetos dust.

4. Lefty’s Famous Cheese Steak Hoagies Grill

Lefty’s Grill in Dearborn, Michigan proudly proclaims to be the home of the famous Hot Cheeto’s Chicken Sandwich. The chicken is deep fried in Flamin’ Hot Cheetos batter and sandwiched between two burger buns. For a less intense flavor, try their Chowdown ribeye steak burger that’s topped with Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.

5. Hopdoddy Burger Bar

If you’re looking for a burger with a twist try the High Roller at Hopdoddy Burger Bar. Their High Roller Angus beef burger is glazed with a Flamin’ Hot Cheeto ketchup.

6. Corner Joint

Corner Joint located in Lawndale, California combined two of America’s favorite comfort foods into one with their Mac N’ Cheeto Pizza. It’s a penne pasta pizza with spicy ranch, Mac n’ cheese popper sauce and crumbled Hot Cheetos. 

7. Paraiso Juice Bar

Bring on the heat with the Flamin’ Hot Mulita at Paraiso Juice Bar based in La Mirada, California. Their Flamin’ Hot Mulita comes with a Hot Cheeto tortilla and your choice of cheese and meat.

8. Mac’d

Hot Cheetos as a mac and cheese topping seems like such an obvious choice I’m wondering why more places haven’t caught up yet. Mac’d offers custom mac and cheese dishes that let you build your own mac from the cheese sauce to the toppings. Build your own mac and cheese and make sure to choose Hot Cheetos as your topping of choice.

9. Tu Taco Taco

It’s like a regular burrito but instead of using traditional hot sauce, Tu Taco Taco adds crushed bits of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos to a cheesy tortilla. 

10. Donut Fantasy

You won’t find any plain donuts at Donut Fantasy. All their donuts are made fresh every morning into unique and inventive flavors that are just as pretty as they are tasty. Their Flamin’ Hot Cheetos is made with white chocolate vanilla icing and topped with Flamin’ Hot Cheetos. You can get it with chocolate icing too!

11. The Low-key Poke Joint

The Low-key Poke Joint is a Hawaiian-Japanese sushi burrito restaurant that lets guests customize their own meal. Their Sushirrito consists of bamboo rice, salmon, tuna, crab meat, and vegetables wrapped in nori seaweed and dusted with Hot Cheetos.

12. The Bagel Nook
