No need to have skewers for these! Leftover batter can be refrigerated and used for a couple of days. One son likes them better made with the leftover batter. I have never cooked a whole pack of hot dogs in one session, so I don't know how long that would take. Cooking time is estimated for one serving. Recipe from The Southern Living Cookbook. Update: there was a question about the two listed amounts of sugar. The recipe is correct as shown. I put 1 T plus 1 tsp of sugar in the batter.

Tips:
- For a crispy crust, use a mixture of cornmeal and flour in the batter. You can also add some bread crumbs for extra crunch.
- To make the corn dog bites more cheesy, add some shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese to the batter.
- For a fun twist, try using different types of hot dogs, such as jalapeño or turkey dogs.
- Be sure to heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the corn dog bites. The ideal temperature is between 350°F and 375°F.
