Here's one recipe for stuffed hush puppies.
You can put the batter around anything that isn't too wet. Mozz should work just fine.
When I was little, cook made hushpuppies stuffed with chunks of apple or peach, even dried fruits in the winter.
I have made them with "poppers" jalapeno peppers stuffed with Mexican cheese inside the hushpuppy coating.
