Who May Find This Useful

Consultants considering trying the Chipotle Chicken Cornbread Cups for demonstrations or gatherings may find these shared experiences helpful.

I wasn't that impressed with them either. So disappointing because they looked so yummy. Their ok but not PC wow like our other recipes. I did add shredded cheddar cheese to the top and that helped--to make it better. Anyone else find they dry?
 
I really like these. They do need the extra sour cream on top, or they'll be a bit dry. I used the cilantro, too.

Since I made them for a practice recipe (not at a show), I had leftovers. For lunch the next day, I just heated them up in a skillet. Since there was already sour cream on them, I thought that might get yucky in a microwave.
 
I made these at home one night. Took leftover to my mothers next day. My kids, mom, aunt all loved them. Mix was a bit hard to stir. More like dough. Could probably use gloves and knead it together :)
 
Are these good at room temperature? I am thinking of making them in advance for my bingo on Saturday ...
 
Room temp would be OK, I guess. I liked them better warm.

I made just the muffin part again yesterday. I mixed the cheese & sour cream together first, then added the cornbread mix, flour & chipotle spices. It was a lot easier to mix that way.
