"Full"back Muffins:
4 packages (8 1/2 ounces each) corn muffin mix
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Prepare corn muffin mix following package directions. Lightly spray Mini Wonder Mold cavities with vegetable pan spray. Fill each cavity with 1/3 cup batter and gently brush batter up the sides of the Mini Wonder Mold cavities. Place approximately 2 tablespoons of chili cheese dip in center of cornbread batter. Top chili cheese dip with approximately 1/4 cup of batter, covering dip. Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes. Gently loosen muffin sides and remove. Cool completely before attaching cracker faces. The Herbed Cracker Faces (see attached recipe) are to be presented atop the Chili Cheese "Full"back Muffins to resemble a mini-sized football player.
