I'd love to make it at home, share the recipe!! 
Ok, I'm gonna take a stab at this and say...
you make mac and cheese, maybe don't add as much milk as you usually would so it stays alittle bit more dense than usual. Roll up into little balls and bread. Then I would drop 'em into a deep fryer. I'm not sure if you could pan fry them but in lieu of a deep fryer you could just heat up a pot of oil and use that instead.

Im going to say that this holiday season, instead of a cookie exchange, we all make our best recipe and go to Jennie's house!
They say to make the macs and cheese homemade and not from the box.

Re: Dear Fried Macaroni and Cheese,(pics on page 2)
GO FOR IT EVERYONE!!!
FRIED MACARONI AND CHEESE BALLS
1 pound elbow macaroni
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk, warmed, plus 2 tablespoons for egg wash
1 pound grated Cheddar
1 pound grated smoked Gouda
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large eggs
3 cups seasoned bread crumbs
Vegetable oil, for frying
Marinara or Alfredo sauce, to serve
Cook the macaroni according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Drain again and set aside.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Sprinkle the flour into the butter and stir it with a whisk. Cook for 2 minutes.
Whisk the warmed milk into the flour mixture, working out any lumps. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
Remove from the heat, add the cheeses, and stir until melted and smooth; season with salt and pepper. Fold the cheese sauce into macaroni. Pour the mac and cheese into a shallow pan and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours.
Shape the cold mac and cheese into meatball-sized balls and place them onto a waxed paper-lined tray. Freeze the balls overnight.
Beat the eggs and 2 tablespoons milk together to form an egg wash and pour it into a shallow bowl. Put the bread crumbs into another shallow bowl.
Remove the mac and cheese balls from the freezer. Dip the frozen balls into the egg wash then into the bread crumbs. Put the balls back into the freezer until you are ready to fry.
Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer to 350 degrees F.
Fry the mac and cheese balls until they are golden brown and center is hot, about 5 minutes.
Serve hot with your favorite marinara or Alfredo sauce or combination or both for dipping.
Freeze the balls overnight.
Im so friggin immature.

ME! I started this whole thing so I have to assume responsibility. However, I WANT THE BALLS TO BE FRESH (oops sorry about the caps) so I shall fry where ever my balls take me.
