"While your chili is simmering, bake your cornbread muffins. I typically just use a box mix for my cornbread for convenience, such as Jiffy. Once they are slightly cooled, slice your muffins in half & layer your cornbread & chili into mason jars. At the top of the mason jar, add in grated cheddar cheese, sour cream and green onions for a fun topping. My husband would also say, add several drops of Tabasco sauce, but only if you dare...."
