I had a host call and request this recipe last night for a show I am doing next Wednesday. I just ordered the chipotle from the supply order last night, so I hope I get it in time. Anyone every made this recipe and what suggestions do you have? I have never made it but it did look simple, that's why I agreed. Thanks!!!! :chef:
 
Didn't care for these too much, but as I recall, the batter was really stiff and hard to mix at first (it is supposed to be) so make sure you give yourself a large enough bowl to mix these in.

I know others on here liked these - it just wasn't my cup of tea.
 
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE!!! Did I say I love these?!

My one suggestion is, make the scoop a rounded scoop of cornbread mix when you are making the muffins. Also, every time I've made them I've had more cornbread muffin cups then chicken mix

which size scoop did u use?
 
I use the small scoop. If the seasoning doesn't come in time for the show, I have been using Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle seasoning. I even brought them to a meeting and no one could tell the difference. I LOVE these. In fact, I think I figured out what is for lunch! ANd if your host doesn't have cooked chicken or you don't want to pre cook chicken, I like to use the Oscar Meyer pre cooked chicken strips. They are easy to cut into small peices. I usually get the southwest strips if they have them, but I am sure that it probably doesn't matter if they seasoned or not. HTH!
 
I keep forgetting about this recipe. We had them at our Cluster Christmas Party and they were very tasty. I was thinking of making them in the stoneware muffin pan for more of a dinner-size serving.

I've been using this also, I had some in the cubbard, and I have bought the PC one yet because I don't want to have doubles if I can help it. I've never tasted the PC one, so I'm glad to hear they are similar enough no one noticed.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What ingredients do I need to prepare Chicken Chipotle Cornbread Cups for my show?

To prepare Chicken Chipotle Cornbread Cups, you will need the following ingredients: cooked chicken, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, cornbread mix, shredded cheese, corn, and any additional toppings like cilantro or sour cream. Make sure to have all your ingredients pre-measured for a smooth demonstration.

How do I prepare the cornbread mix for the cups?

To prepare the cornbread mix, follow the instructions on the package. Typically, you will combine the cornbread mix with water or milk and any additional ingredients specified. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix, as this can affect the texture of the cornbread cups.

What tools do I need for making the Chicken Chipotle Cornbread Cups?

You will need a muffin tin to bake the cornbread cups, mixing bowls for combining ingredients, a spatula for mixing, and measuring cups and spoons. Having a Pampered Chef scoop can also help portion the cornbread batter evenly into the muffin tin.

How long do I bake the Chicken Chipotle Cornbread Cups?

Bake the Chicken Chipotle Cornbread Cups in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.

Can I prepare the Chicken Chipotle Cornbread Cups ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator until you're ready to bake. However, it's best to mix the cornbread batter just before baking for the best texture. If you want to make them completely ahead of time, you can bake them and then reheat them in the oven before serving.
