Having a Superbowl Party?

I bet some of you out there are having a Superbowl party...or at least are watching it at home with your family.  If you are, I've got a couple of great recipes for you.

CREAMY CORN MUFFINS

• 2 pkgs. "JIFFY" Corn Muffin Mix
• 2 eggs
• 1 can (12 oz.) cream style corn
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 tsp. lemon juice
• 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

---

Preheat oven to 375°, grease muffin pans or use paper liners.

Mix all ingredients together. Pour into prepared muffin pans, filling about 1/2 full. Bake 22-28 minutes. Let cool before removing from pan.

I will be making these muffins to go along with a big pot of chili.  These are the best corn muffins I've ever had!
