Stepping up cornbread, the easy eats way

It's chili and soup season, people!  No bowl of warm heaven is complete without some cornbread on the side.  As a Texan and a lazy overachiever, however, I do not stop with a simple cornbread.  I make cheesy jalepeno cornbread.  Delicious with a bit of sass, and it looks impressive even though it takes about 5 minutes to prepare for the oven.

If you have a big group or want leftovers, double the recipe (the recipe makes about 2 dozen muffins).  Ingredients:
2 c. canned cream-style corn
2/3 c. vegetable oil
2 c. dairy sour cream
1 1/2 to 2 c. grated Cheddar cheese
1 (4 oz.) can jalapenos or green chilies, seeded and chopped (most stores have diced canned)
2 pkgs. Jiffy corn bread mix
4 eggs, beaten
1 c. chopped onion
 
Preheat the oven to 350.  Combine everything in a big bowl and mix til uniform.  Grease a muffin tin or cake pan (depending on what you want), and pour.  Bake for 30-45 minutes til a toothpick comes out clean.
