In a bowl, combine 1 cup cornmeal, 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper and 4 teaspoons baking powder. Stir in 1 egg and 1 cup milk.

Pour batter into the Bake-a-Bowl pan.

Dice hot dogs into 1/4" thick pieces and push them into the corn dog batter.

Bake at 375° for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the corn dog bowls comes out smooth.

While the bowls are in the oven cook the pasta according to the directions on the package.

In a separate pan, melt butter over medium heat and stir in 1½ tablespoons flour. Add 1½ cups milk and reduce heat to low. Stir in cheese slowly until melted and pour over cooked pasta.

Scoop macaroni and cheese into bowls and top with ketchup and fresh ground pepper if you're like me and love ketchup on your mac & cheese and your corn dogs. If you're like nearly everyone else in the world who thinks that's disgusting though I'm happy to report that the corn dog bowls also taste pretty damn good even without the ketchup!
