My fantastic friend Layla is becoming one of my tried-and-true baking buddies. We have spent many an evening elbow deep in flour making a mess of her otherwise immaculate apartment, ('cause I'm a messy baker......like......for real.....,) creating long lists of delicious confections. Seeing as I have a sweet tooth, I was equal parts fascinated and excited when Layla suggested we create Cheddar Jalapeno Corn Muffins. It went like this:
Layla: I was thinking something with cheddar and jalapeños....like maybe a corn muffin.
Me: {Confused face}
Layla: Don't you think that sounds good?
To myself, while face still appears confused-- Where is the SUGAR or CHOCOLATE in this idea??? Muffins that are not sugar or chocolate?? IS THIS POSSIBLE?? Wait-- it's totally possible...and totally delicious.
Me: BRILLIANT!!!!
Both of us: Let's get some wine. (This has nothing to do with the recipe, but it totally happened.)
