Low-Fat Jalapeno Cornbread Muffins image

This was inspired by Normaone's Low-fat Southern Cornbread, which is a great recipe, and includes several changes that I made to suit our taste, including adding low-fat cheese and fat free sour cream. I used an artificial sweetener that measures cup for cup. This recipe creates a dense, slightly sweet cornbread with a kick! Like it spicier? Add more jalapenos!
