I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my corn cakes turned out dry and crumbly. They didn't taste very good either.

These corn cakes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I've made these corn cakes several times now and they are always a hit! They are so moist and flavorful. I love that I can add different ingredients to them to change up the flavor. Last time I added some chopped bacon and green onions. Yum!
