Corn Dog Puppies Appetizer Recipes

Steps:

• If desired, you can deep fry on the toothpicks that you dip them into the batter with and then replace them with more decorative wooden appetizer skewers before serving... it's up to you.

Steps:

• Warm the milk to about 110 degrees in a saucepan; pour into a medium bowl. Sprinkle in the yeast and let soften for about 2 minutes. Stir in the olive oil, brown sugar and cornmeal with a wooden spoon. Add the flour, salt, baking soda and cayenne pepper; stir to make a sticky dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead, adding more flour if needed, until smooth but still slightly tacky, about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, insert a wooden stick or small skewer into each hot dog half, about 1 inch deep; set aside.
