Sweet Corn Muffins Recipe

last night...

I made White Chili and Sweet Corn Muffins for dinner- not usually something I make in the summer months, but the weather was stormy and that always calls for some warm comfort food! It was absolutely delicious! I was just recently given the recipe for these sweet (almost cake-like) muffins. They are the best I've ever had! Try them yourself and see what ya think:

Sweet Corn Muffins

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter

2/3 cup white sugar

1/4 cup honey

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup cornmeal

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 cup milk

3/4 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed (or from a can, drained)

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease or line 12 muffin cups. (I used larger muffin tins and got 8.)

2. In  a large bowl, cream together butter, sugar, honey, eggs & salt. Mix in flour, cornmeal & baking powder, blending thoroughly. Stir in milk and corn. Pour or spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.

3. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of muffin comes out clean.

Serve with something hot that'll "stick to your bones", and you've got yourself a rainy weather meal! :)
