Taby found this one and I tweaked it a little.
Cornbread Muffins
1 cup yellow corn meal
1 cup stone ground cornmeal
1 (9 oz) package yellow cake mix
2 t baking powder
1 t salt
1/4 t cayenne pepper
1/4 t chipotle powder
½ cup milk
½ cup buttermilk
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 eggs beaten
2 T dark brown sugar
2 T honey
1 T light miracle whip
Directions:
1) Combine cornmeals, cake mix, baking powder, salt and cayenne pepper in a bowl, set aside. Combine milk, buttermilk, oil, eggs, brown sugar and honey in a bowl and mix well. Add to the cornmeal mixture and mix gently, there should be no lumps, but don't over mix. Fold in the miracle whip.
2) Let rest, covered, in the fridge for 30 min. or up to over night.
3) Preheat oven to 400 F. Spoon the cold batter into a greased muffin tin. Bake for 25 – 30 min. or until a tooth pick inserted comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
Enjoy.
We have made this twice now.
It started out with 1/8 t cayenne and light brown sugar.
I added 1/4 t chipotle powder to kick it up a little.
This is still kid friendly, not hot at all just a little spice to it.
Thinkin of addin some ground jalapenos to the next batch.
Give these a shot, the kids really liked them.
OU812,
What was the texture like?
I like cornbread but it seems to dry out too soon.

I have a recipe for dense corn bread. I am looking for a lighter, fluffier corn bread. With the cake mix, does this one fit the bill?
Looks like a good cornbread muffin mix. Approximately, how many muffins doe it make?
Brad and Paul,
The texture is not as dense as a normal corn bread the cake mix really helps fluff it up and keep it moist. Kinda like a grainy cake that tastes like corn, a little sweeter than normal corn bread.
Habs,
Makes approx 12 muffins.
These sound great, OU!!
