My mother-in-law shared this recipe with me. It's something different and very simple to make. My husband, Rich, and I especially like it because corn is our favorite vegetable.

These corn puffs are a great way to use up leftover corn. I always have a few ears of corn left over after I make dinner, and this is the perfect way to use them up.

This recipe was a hit at my last party! The corn puffs were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the flavor was amazing. I'll definitely be making these again.
