Corn Muffin Recipe

Warm From The Oven, With Chocolate Butter!

 

 

Introduction

What’s better than warm corn muffins? Warm corn muffins with chocolate butter!

The muffins are best served warm, so if you’re not serving them straight from the oven, given them a little warming in the microwave.

This recipe, courtesy of Tracy Wood Anderson of Woodhouse Chocolate (a NIBBLE Top Pick Of The Week), can also be made as cornbread in a baking pan. If you make cornbread, Tracy suggests pouring some cream over the batter before baking, then pouring melted butter over the top of the bread just after it’s baked.
