Chubby Puppies

Ingredients

• 1 pound weiners
• 4 cups shortening
• 10 round sticks
• 3 eggs, separated
• 3/4 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 4 teaspoons dry mustard

Steps

1. Beat egg yolks with milk and melted butter. Add flour, sifted with salt. Beat until mixture is smooth.
2. Stir in lemon juice.
3. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into batter.
4. Add dry mustard.
5. Stir in whole weiners. Chill 2 hours or overnight.
6. Fry weiners in very hot (about 300 degrees) shortening. The batter will swell up and adhere to the weiners. Fry until golden brown, gently turning once.
