Kicked-Up Cornbread Mini-Muffins

No plain ol' cornbread for me anymore. Whip up a batch of your favorite recipe. (I'm partial to Jiffy myself.) And then add these things in before you pour into mini-muffin pans. Each variation lists ingredient amounts for a full 12 muffins; split in half or thirds if you'd like a taste of each in one sitting.
