These mini corn dogs were so simple and so stinking cute! My son who is a high school junior really isn’t into the “stinking cute” food but everyone else was pretty darn excited to see them. The recipe makes two dozen so I assumed I would have enough for lunch the following day, but my scavengers found the leftovers. I won’t tell you the lengths I go to in an attempt to hide lunchbox treats from my kiddos. I have a new hiding spot this year and so far, no one has found it. They keep looking however and it is only a matter of time when I open my container to find it half eaten 🙂
The only struggle I had with these cutie patooties was that they stuck a bit to my mini muffin pan. I will be more generous with the spray next time, or might even use some mini muffin liners. If you have nonstick mini muffin pans, count yourself blessed 🙂
