The history of this recipe is fairly short. I came across it somewhere and made them and liked them. Since Hales Corners I had lost track of the recipe. Gwen Koch mentioned that she loved the cornmeal griddle cake recipe she had gotten from me. I got it back. Still don't know where or which cookbook it came from. Now I am posting it so I don't lose it again.
