Cozy Dogs

This recipe for Cozy Dogs is from my Aunt Nell.  I miss her so much and have many great, fun memories of her.  She was loving, kind, generous, beautiful and a great cook. 
18 - 24 weiners
18 - 24 chop sticks (these work best)
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. chili powder
2 tsp. sea salt
1 tbsp. mustard
2 eggs, beaten
1-1/4 cups milk

Sift flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and chili powder into bowl. Stir in cornmeal. Mix mustard, eggs & milk. Stir wet ingredients in to dry ingredients. Mix well with a wooden spoon. Stick each weiner with a chop stick and dip into batter. Drop into hot vegetable oil and fry for 3 to 5 minutes each. Drain on paper towels.
