• Get out 4 thawed hot dogs and lay on paper towels to dry.
• Combine all dry ingredients and blend well.
• Stir in Milk.
• Add just enough water so that it sticks well to the spoon without running off.
• Finish patting dry the hot dogs
• I cut my hot dogs into thirds and make bite size corn dogs.
• Take a paper sucker stick, put it into one side of the hot dog, dip it into the bowl of batter and spoon batter over to evenly coat.
• Put it into the deep fryer, using another stick to push it off of the other
• I suggest holding it up a little bit with the stick if you are using a deep fryer with a basket, this will allow the bottom to begin cooking before it gets caught in the basket.
• Fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Let cool on paper towels to remove excess oil.
• Prep time does not include the amount of time it takes individual deep fryers to heat up.
