CHEDDAR CORN MUFFINS
I found this recipe in a cookbook called. Quick Vegetarian Pleasures. Makes 12 muffins. "These are light and moist, with a mild but irresistible cheese accent. They are equally good served for breakfast or with chili. If you want a more traditional corn muffin, just leave out the cheese."

MINI CORN MUFFINS
"When my great-grandson was a teenager, he and his friends could hardly wait for these muffins to come out of the oven. The aroma is heavenly as they bake," writes field editor Ruby Williams of Bogalusa, Louisiana. "I like them because they're not crumbly like some lighter corn muffins."

Tips:
- To achieve the best results, make sure to use fresh corn kernels. Frozen or canned corn will not yield the same texture or flavor.
- For a spicier filling, increase the amount of jalapeño pepper used. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for an extra kick.
- If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- Be sure not to overmix the muffin batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
- To prevent the muffins from sticking to the muffin tins, grease the tins with cooking spray or line them with paper liners.
