Harvest Corn Cakes image

Sweet corn takes on a whole new meaning with this recipe. The corncobs look delightfully like the real thing-except they're made of cake, frosting and peanut butter candies! These treats really brighten up the Thanksgiving table, and they're so easy to make. Children can help with this project, too. They'll have fun putting the "kernels" on-and eating a few as well! -Mary Detweiler, Middlefield, Ohio
