½ cup butter or ½ cup margarine
1 cup Gold Medal all-purpose flour
½ cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin (I add) (optional)
1 teaspoon cayenne (I add) (optional)
6 eggs , beaten
¾ cup shredded monterey jack cheese (3 oz)
¾ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (3 oz)
2 (4 ½ ounce) cans chopped green chilies , drained

1 Heat oven to 400°F Spray 24 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. In 3-quart saucepan, heat water and butter over high heat to a full rolling boil. Remove from heat.
2 Stir in flour, cornmeal and salt (cumin and cayenne if using) until mixture forms a dough and all lumps have disappeared. Gradually stir in beaten eggs until well blended. Stir in both cheeses and the chiles.
3 Spoon dough evenly into muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
4 Bake 25 to 29 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 2 minutes; remove from muffin cups. Serve warm.
