I am over 70 yrs of age and had never heard of Corn Dodgers till last week when my hubby mentioned them! Tried your recipe tonight for a "before bedtime" snack -- they were delicious, and really quick and easy to make. Being a basically lazy soul, I used parchment paper instead of greasing a baking sheet, and it worked well. I put a variety of jams and honey on the table -- my guy ate four!! Next time perhaps I'll try them with the cheese, jalapenos, or both. Bet they would go really well with a good stew! Thank you, Leslie, for a real treat. Gwen
