Muffin CornDogs

Yesterday my son had his first corndog! First the amazement on his face that he got to hold his food with a stick was priceless, but after he took that first bite to find A HOTDOG in there was even more priceless. He gobbled it up and was so well behaived during lunch I thought to myself he MUST eat these more often. I then remembered I had just bought a Jiffy Box of Corn Meal Muffins for $.68 and a large pack of Turkey Dogs at Walmart for a little over $3 which included 24 turkey dogs! Lets make our own version of corn dogs and try this at home. To the kitchen I went!

Prepare the Jiffy as directed on the box
this includes 1 egg and 1/3 cup of milk I also followed the suggestion of letting it set for 3-4 mins before stiring a second time.

I then divided half of the batter into 6 greased muffin tins

I cut one dog into 6 equal parts and ditributed

divide remaining batter ontop of the dogs

In a preheated 400 degree oven bake until golden brown. My oven runs hot so mine only took 10 minutes to bake. Let cool and remove from muffin pan.

Now here is my opinion on these little goodies.
Pros:
Easy to make
They are darn good!
CHEAP!!!! $.13 for the dog and $.68 for the box of Jiffy. Approx $.07 for the milk $.20 for the egg = $1.08 = $.18 per muffin!!!!
Even at $1.08 for all six muffins that is cheaper than buying one from the hot table at Safeway

Cons:
Not much to complain about except for the fact that if your two year old is eating them keep the dust buster at reach.
