Jalapeno Cheddar Corn Muffins with Jalapeno Butter are delicious little muffins made with fresh jalapeños and sharp white cheddar cheese, perfect for chili, soup or great just as a snack with a little melted butter.
You know you need a new jalapeno recipe today…
These are soooo cute. And soooo fun. Oh, and soooo good.
These are my Jalapeno Cheddar Corn Muffins that I added even more jalapeno goodness to – Jalapeno Butter.
Yes, I know I need a manicure.
The cheese I used is Cabot’s Sharp White Cheddar, but you could go with whatever you like. Sharp cheddar has been my very favorite since I was little.
Speaking of little – my sister and niece are here for a visit this week! This kid can eat (you know I love it), and she especially loves ceviche, of all things.
This is Liza putting away a whole bowl of guacamole with some ceviche thrown in there.
She’s just so stinkin’ cute I can’t stand it.
