Joseph, My mother from New Mexico made raisin tamales--they were served as a snack or dessert. She also made capirotada with raisins. You can make dessert tamales like you would any pie or cake--whatever ingredients go in pie or cake, go in cornmeal. How about chocolate chip tamales--yum!

Raisin Tamales. . .I thought my mom was the only one that made these.
Boy could I eat a dozen by myself right now (but not all Raisin). I
guess I'd have to say that Pork with lots of "gordo" on the meat are my
favorite. but I can't eat Tamales that have been cooked, cooled, frozen
and warmed up [well I guess I could] I have to have mine fresh cooked.
Boy are they good.
I'd say that Tamales are my favorite food, then again I think I'd rather
have a big bowl of Menudo with lots of chopped onion, some oregano,
cilantro, and lemon juice and a tall pile of flour tortillas (fresh made).
Can the next person flying to North Carolina bring me some tamales?
Solito aqui en Carolina del Norte,
joseph
ps: my mom's mom was from Jalisco. That is how this discussion of
Tamales fits in and stays on topic!
