Mini Corn Dog Muffins With Creole Mustard Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375ºF.
• Prepare muffin batter as directed on package; spoon into 24 mini muffin pan cups sprayed with cooking spray.
• Press 1 each VELVEETA cube and hot dog slice into batter in center of each muffin cup.
• Bake 10 to 12 min. or until golden brown. Cool 5 min. before removing from pans. Serve warm with mustard.

Steps:

• Heat 2 inches of oil in a large heavy pot to 375 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Line a plate with paper towels.
• Insert wooden ice pop sticks or skewers securely into the hot dogs.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl.
• Whisk the eggs and buttermilk together in a large bowl. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk to combine. Pour the batter into a tall drinking glass.
• When the oil is hot, dip a hot dog into the batter to coat thoroughly, then add it to the oil. Repeat with as many as will fit comfortably in the pot. Fry, turning occasionally, until puffed and golden brown all over, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs, returning the oil to 375 degrees F between batches.
• Serve immediately with ketchup and mustard.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, salt, pepper, sugar, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, gently whisk the eggs with the milk and stir into the dry mix.
• Preheat the oil in a Dutch oven, deep saucepot or mini fryer to 350 degrees F.
• Insert wooden skewers through the center of each frankfurter.
• Dry frankfurters with a towel, then dust with cornstarch and shake off the excess. Then hold the frankfurters by the end of the skewer and dip in the batter until well coated. Let the excess batter drip off.
• Carefully holding the end of the skewer, let the corn dogs fry for 5 seconds before letting go to prevent them sticking to the bottom of the pot. Fry until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
