This recipe was published in the Memphis Commercial Appeal back in the mid 1970's. At the time, this recipe was used to make the Pronto Pups at the Mid South Fair in Memphis. My children love it when I make these. They taste just like the ones you pay $3.00 for at the fair!

These corn dogs are so delicious and easy to make.I've always used 1 cup of cornmeal and 1 cup flour and I leave the pepper out.I refrigerate my batter for a few hours before using it and if it seems too thick I'll thin it with a little more milk. I like to flour the hot dogs first and then cut them in half and make mini dogs.These remind me of the corn dogs I get from the fair and they are even good the next day reheated in the oven.
