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.
