Chili Cheese Corn Dogs are corn dogs that are sliced and filled with homemade chili, cheddar cheese, onion, and jalapeno pepper. If these sound good to you, try the fixings on my homemade Pronto Pups!
Chili Cheese Corn Dog
Since I already have Chili Cheese Fries and Chili Cheese Nachos, it made sense to add this recipe to the list. I found the idea on a Reddit food thread, and then I was just craving one of the dogs! They are an easy lunch, dinner, or appetizer to put together. Start with a package of storebought corn dogs and then add homemade chili, cheese, onion, and jalapeno!
Corn Dog Ingredients
Corn Dogs: Grab some corn dogs from the store and cook them following the package instructions. The bigger, the better!
Chili: If you have the time, make homemade chili to top the corn dog. I have a few chili recipes from Texas chili to Meatless chili to Spicy Steak Chili.
Cheese: I prefer sharp cheddar cheese, but I think Monterey Jack cheese would also be delicious. Or, use a combination of your favorite kinds of cheese.
Onion:Â Onions are important in this recipe. I used a yellow onion, but you could substitute a white onion for a little more bite to the flavor.
What to Serve with Chili Cheese Corn Dogs
As I stated, these corn dogs could be served as a main course or as an appetizer, depending on the size. If they are being served as the main course, serve them with a side of macaroni and cheese, potato chips, roasted sweet potatoes, potato salad, or cornbread, just to name a few.

I like the cheese or cheesy part! also: I used to be on you tube, and used to comment about stuff like this, until I was rudely ran off of you tube, by some Attention Junkie in need of constant attention, named JAN……also: I used to like corn dogs lots just a few years ago……
