Directions
Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes, This is a copycat recipe from the Cheesecake Factory It is a Top Secret Restaurant Recipes authored by Todd Wilbur I haven’t made this yet, but it sounds very good I think this will be a very easy recipe to prepare Don’t be intimidated by the long list of ingredients there are three simple sauces that are part of this recipe If you try this before I do, please review it and let me know how it turned out Prep time is a guesstimation , Made the Tamale Cakes and was stunned with the result Should the corn meal have been cooked first? This was like eating Grape Nut patties — gritty, mealy, hard and without much flavor (except for the butter — way too much butter) This was a real disappointment , This recipe is becoming a family tradition in our home I have made it several times and it very good The prepping of the sauces can take a long time but can be done ahead The cakes are drier than those at the restaurant, so I add a couple of tablespoons of greek yogurt to the mix The butter does better slightly melted too I have also started using greek yogurt instead of mayo in the southwest sauce without noticing any difference 4 stars instead of 5 just for the time commitment Taste is 5 stars!
