Ingredients

  • 15 oz package of cornbread mix
  • ½ cup milk
  • cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup canned corn drained
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 6 Cheddar or Colby Jack Cheese Sticks cut into 5-6 pieces each

Instructions

  • Prep: Begin by preheating the oven to400°F. Then, lightly grease a mini or standard size muffin pan. I used a minimuffin pan for these, if you use a standard size you might need to adjust your baking time.
  • Also, cut the cheese sticks into 5or 6 pieces each, these chunks will be pressed into the center of the muffin batter before baking. Set aside for later use.
  • Batter: Next, in a large bowl, stir together the cornbread mix, milk, vegetable oil, the egg, canned corn and the shredded cheese, until well blended.
  • Proceed to scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan using a 1 ½ tablespoon (#40) cookie scoop. Then, place a chunk of the cut up cheese stick into the center of each muffin. If you are using a standard size muffin pan, scoop 2 ½ tablespoons (#24 scoop) batter into each muffin cup.
  • Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 12-14 minutes or until light golden brown. If you used a standard size muffin pan, they make take a few minutes longer. Check on them at the 15 minute mark, bake for 2 minute intervals if the batter is still wet in the center.
