1/2 cup sour cream

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. 

In a small bowl combine flour, butter and sour cream. 

Coat 12 cup muffin pan with baking spray.

Add a dollop of fruity preserves.....yum!

Jim and Nick's Cheddar Muffins

It’s been cold and wet here for the last few days here in Georgia, so I figured Vegetable Beef Soup was in order for tonight’s dinner.

Dear Daughter suggested I prepared some cheese muffins to go along with the soup like they serve at Jim and Nick’s BBQ restaurant, so I agreed.

This recipe is as close as you can get to those little sweet cheesy gems they serve while you are looking over the menu.

While the recipe calls for using mini-muffin tins I used a 12 muffin regular sized pan. They are now all gone but 2……:)

4 T. butter, melted

1½ cups all purpose flour

2 ½ t. baking powder

1 cup sugar

¾ cup milk

1 egg

¼ t. vanilla

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Mix all ingredients and pour into greased mini-muffin tins.
Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

Simple, huh?

Sausage Cheese Muffins

Sausage Balls made with cheddar cheese, Bisquick, and sausage were always a staple around my house growing up especially during the Christmas season. These muffins are like having a huge sausage ball. They taste good and take less time than forming all of those little balls.

I tried this receipe for the first time when my daughter had a group over from church for the weekend.....six teenage girls and two adult leaders. Every muffin was gone in ten minutes!

1 (1-lb.) package ground pork sausage

3 cups all-purpose baking mix ( I used Bisquick)

1 1/2 cups (6 oz.) shredded Cheddar Cheese

1 (10 3/4-oz.) can condensed cheese soup

3/4 cup water

Cook sausage in a large skillet, stirring until it crumbles and is no longer pink. Drain and cool.

Combine sausage, baking mix, and shredded cheese in a large bowl; make a well in the center of mixture.

Stir together soup and 3/4 cup water; add to sausage mixture, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened.

Spoon into lightly greased muffin pans, filling to top of cups.

Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned.
