Extra Cheese Muffins

This muffin is so tasty, and so full of cheese. The recipe is from Paula Deen. I made them into mini muffins for a cook-out and the recipe worked just as well. Just bake for about 15 minutes instead of 20.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 12

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1  tablespoon sugar
• 2 1⁄2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 3  cups sharp cheddar cheese or 3  cups extra-sharp cheddar cheese, coarse grated (depending on the flavor you like)
• 1  cup milk
• 1  egg
• 1⁄4 cup butter, melted

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Combine the flour, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a bowl.
3. Grate the cheese, then combine by hand until all the cheese is covered.
4. This will seem like you've put in too much cheese and not enough flour, but keep going.
5. Whisk together the milk and egg.
6. Add to the cheese/flour mixture.
7. Then add the melted butter, stir until just mixed.
8. Spoon into greased muffin pan and bake for 20 minutes.
