How to Make Green Chili Corn Muffins

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup water, and 1/4 cup vegetable oil.
In a separate bowl, combine 1 box (8.5 oz) corn muffin mix, 1 box (15.25 oz) jiffy corn muffin mix, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Stir in 1 (4 oz) can of diced green chilies (undrained) and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
Fill each muffin liner 3/4 full.
Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
