I halved the recipe and am sure glad I did. Less to throw away! Dry and tasteless. I have been following her show for yeas and rarely do her recipes disappoint me, but this one sure did. If you haven’t yet, try her chili on this episode. It’s to die for!!!

Easy to make and I was able to make them dairy free.

There’s nothing like muffins from scratch, and these were super easy. I doubled the chiles. which gave them nice fresh flavor. I find many muffins taste too salty or sweet, but these were perfect. Thanks!
Tami Pham
Good. I make an easier version buy using Jiffy mix made as directed then add cheese and green Chile’s. Family favorite. Sorry Ree.
Darlene Payne
Uh,I would think that anyone with a modicum of sense would realize that would not be enough milk! Geez!!

I just made these muffins and ate three of them for lunch. They were so tender and just the right amount of cheese and chili’s. One big thing, though, I forgot to add the cold butter and I didn’t have whole milk, just 2 percent milk, and you know what? They still came out fluffy and tender and yummy.

Holy Cow! I should have read the reviews! Please fix this recipe! The time I wasted and the grief I experienced when I was trying to create a relaxing family dinner with my out of town son & wife as well as in town kids. It really stressed my visit with them because this was an important part of the meal!!!!!!!!!!

The management at Food Network should be ASHAMED of themselves for not implementing a system of quality checks and balances to ensure that accurate measurement of ingredients are posted. Once again a ruined dinner, wasted time and ingredients; not to mention wasted money!! “1 tablespoon and 3/4 teaspoon milk…”? Really? Seriously?!!! I had to catch the episode again to make my own correction – CUPS not tablespoon of milk!!! The recipe itself is great if done correctly. Food Network management, please get it together. This isn’t the first or second time!! AND where is the video that you normally have a link to???
