These are the best corn cakes I've ever had! And I grew up eating these things. They are light and soft on the inside and crispy outside. I've made them 5 or 6 times since I got the recipe a week ago. Reeeallllly good. I left out the jalepeno, red peppers, cheese and corn because I like them simple. I used oil instead of butter just cuz it was easier. yummmmmmmm
