Velveeta Pepper Jack Cornbread

Jalapeños and Velveeta pepper jack cheese brings the heat in this sweet and spicy shortcut  cornbread. 

Today I want to share a delicious cornbread recipe with Y'all. This  isn't your regular cornbread by any means, but cornbread with a twist.  In Texas we like things a little spicier than most folks, so we love adding a little heat to our cornbread. 

This Pepper Jack Cornbread is similar to Mexican Cornbread, but this recipe uses Pepper Jack Velveeta and jalapenos which makes a tasty combination. If you're not a big fan of spicy things then I recommend leaving out the jalapenos and just using just the pepper jack cheese.

I have made this recipe twice once with Velveeta's pepper jack cheese and the second time with the Mexican mild. I had to use the Mexican Velveeta because the pepper jack Velveeta is hard to find in the grocery store, so if you happen to come across it take it from me and buy it because they are really hard to get your hands on. 

I got this recipe from Rachel at A Southern Fairytale. Rachel is one of my fellow Velveeta Kitchenista and this was her original recipe submission. This cornbread is really good and goes perfectly perfectly with a big pot of chili, pinto beans or even soup. I hope you'll give this recipe a try, because you can't have too many cornbread recipes.

Enjoy!
