Notes

These can be stored in the freezer and will stay fresh for several months. They will also be yummy stored at room temperature in a tightly sealed container for about 3 days.
Recipe was tested using Jiffy brand cornbread mix, but other variations will probably work just as well! Just use the amount of milk and egg called for on the box.
