Mix the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Stir in milk, egg and remaining oil until blended; stir in can of creamed corn.

Remove hot skillet from oven; pour 1/2 of the cornbread mixture into the pan. Layer in the cooked ground beef, chopped onion, chile peppers and shredded cheese. Pour remaining cornbread mixture on top of cheese.

Bake for approximately 40 minutes until golden brown. Oven temps vary so be sure to watch; it may take more or less time depending on the oven.
