• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/3 cup milk

• 5 add just enough water so that it sticks well to the spoon without running off.
• 6 finish patting dry the hot dogs
• 7 i cut my hot dogs into thirds and make bite size corn dogs.
• 8 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.
• 9 put it into the deep fryer, using another stick to push it off of the other
• 10 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.
• 11 fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. let cool on paper towels to remove excess oil.
• 12 prep time does not include the amount of time it takes individual deep fryers to heat up.
