3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
5. Fold in the shredded cheese and chopped jalapenos.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan or skillet, smoothing the top into an even layer.

8. Allow the cornbread to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
