These Mini Corn Cake Muffins are a little savory, a little sweet, and come in a little package.
Corn bread is like a house divided. Half the nation declares it shouldn’t be anything other than savory, while the other half desperately wants it to taste like birthday cake.
Interestingly enough, these Mini Corn Cake Muffins weren’t nearly as sweet as I was expecting, considering the batter includes cake mix. Maybe still sweet enough to turn a purist off, but I don’t think so.
These were really good…I believe a group hug is in order.
This recipe is actually from Jiffy, but they made a loaf. Big shocker that I converted them to muffins…and even bigger shocker that I made them mini, instead of full size. Oh mini food, I love you so.
You also won’t be surprised to know that I drenched mine in butter and honey, even though they didn’t need it.
What can I say? I like birthday cake.

Those muffins look just perfect. i really don’t understand why it never works out that way for me but I love starring at yours. :-)
I’ll jump in on that group hug! I love making mini anything, especially cute little muffins! So perfect to pass at the table for the holidays!
So…*clears throat*…while you were out, I found these in the fridge. OMG! They are SO yummy! I had two and could have eaten all of them! I am SO making these!
I’m on the birthday cake side of the spectrum…but is that really a surprise given the fact that if my thighs could take it, I’d eat birthday cake at every meal?
I love that you made these into muffins! No slicing. No… or at least minimized mess :)
I love me some sweet cornbread. Jiffy cornbread mix is my favorite and adding the cake mix can only make it better!!!
Nice cutting board. ;)
Funny, someone brought a tray of these in on Monday with blueberries in them. Good stuff!
