Equipment

  • 12 Cupcake Liners
  • 1 Cupcake Tin
  • 1 Small Sheet Pan
  • 1 Large Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

  • 2 corn bread mix
  • 2 Eggs
  • cup Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Olive Oil or other neutral flavored cooking oil
  • 3 Jalapenos fresh whole
  • 1 cup Sharp Cheddar Cheese

Honey Butter

  • ¾ cup Butter room temperature
  • 2 tablespoon Honey

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Drizzle two of the jalapenos with a little olive oil and place on a sheet pan. Roast them in the oven for 15 minutes.
  • After the jalapeños have cooked and cooled, dice them into small pieces. Discard the white membranes and seeds.
  • Mix the batter. Combine the two boxes of jiffy corn muffin mix with two room temperature eggs and ⅔ cup of milk.
  • Now fold in the grated sharp cheddar cheese and dice jalapeño.
  • Top the muffins with extra cheese and individual slices of jalapenos (the thinner the better).
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes.
  • While the cornbread bakes, make the honey butter. Using a rubber spatula or mixer, stir the room temperature butter and honey until they are completely combined.
  • Let them cool and serve.
