We LOVED these cheddar cheese corn fritters. I admit that I added a tad more sugar as I wanted them sweet. (We love sweet foods). Other than that we followed this spot-on recipe. This is one of the many Kittencal recipes I had on a list "to make". These were so easy to make, but such a wonderful addition to my meal. Great side dish!!
