Spooky Corn Dogs for Halloween Fun

These corn dogs are made with hot dogs dipped in a sweet cornmeal batter and fried until golden brown. They are then decorated with spooky faces using mustard or ketchup, making them a fun addition to your Halloween party. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and serves 6 people.

Ingredients

6 hot dogs
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg
Vegetable oil for frying
Mustard or ketchup for decoration

Instructions

Prepare the Hot Dogs: Pat the hot dogs dry with paper towels and insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog, leaving enough stick for easy handling.
Make the Batter: In a bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed.
Heat the Oil: In a deep pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
Coat the Hot Dogs: Dip each hot dog into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow excess batter to drip off.
Fry the Corn Dogs: Carefully place the coated hot dogs into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Decorate: Once cooled slightly, use mustard or ketchup to create spooky faces on the corn dogs.
