Ken has been talking about trying to do corn dogs for a while now and then I saw a picture on Foodgawker and went to the site to grab the recipe. Ken changed it up slightly, added a jalapeno in the middle and I called them Cowboy Corn Dogs With a Twist. WOW, they were great.

The kids gobbled them down in seconds and we enjoyed the ones with the jalapenos. So when you come back from the Stampede and your kids are asking for more you can whip up these little guys and they will be delighted and the big cowboys can have them with the jalapenos!!!
