I think I just had one of the greatest 4th of July weekends of my life!  Despite hurricane Arthur hitting our coastline and trying to wreak some major havoc, we did considerably well and are very blessed.  I was a nervous wreck, as usual, then headed out on the boat with some friends.

After being out in the sun all day, the last thing I want to do is spend a ton of time in the kitchen when I get home.  That’s the great thing about this cornbread mix from Fleischmann’s.  I love doctoring up mixes from a box and making them my own.

I made these awesome Cheddar Jalapeño Corn Muffins with Chipotle Honey Butter when I got home to go with the baked chicken that we threw in the roaster.  With just a few minutes of prep time you can have these muffins on the table in less than 25 minutes!

With a view like this, who wants to go home and spend forever cooking?  NOT ME.

So if you’re looking for a great boxed cornbread mix, Fleischmann’s tastes like it’s from scratch but without all the hassle!  Slather some of this easy Chipotle Honey Butter on these muffins and take them over the top.  What’s your favorite way to “doctor up” cornbread mix?
