Corn Dog Muffins

I love corn dogs!  Cornbread + hot dog + wooden stick = deliciousness!  Corn dogs are great to get the State Fair or amusement parks (specifically Disneyland California Adventure… amazing corn dogs there!), but how can you have them at home??  Well, you could buy the frozen or you can make these muffins!

Growing up, I used to request that my parent buy the frozen kind, so that I could have a corn dog every once in a while.  Knowing my love for the meat on a stick, they brought me this recipe that they cut out of a magazine and now I’ve finally made them!  Boy, am I glad I did because they are SO good.  Jeremy even gave them the “two thumbs up” and stamp of approval.

The recipe is so simple and quick.  I cut it in half and got 11 regular sized muffins out of it; plus, I used skim milk and light cheese.  Yum, yum, yum!  I ate my corn dog muffins with ketchup and mustard, which I think is a MUST for corn dogs, while Jerm ate his plain.  They were delicious!  If you’re a hot dog or corn dog lover, go make this recipe.  Seriously, go now.

Enjoy!

  2. I LOVE CORNDOGS! But eat them plain?... I don't know... I love ketchup and mustard mixed together to make a delicious orange concoction. It's tangy and sweet. I'm definitely making these.
