I go this recipe from a long-time friend several years ago and it's my most-used. I love to serve this melt-in-your mouth corn bread hot from the oven with butter and syrup. It gets rave reviews on holidays and at potluck dinners. —Nicole Callen Auburn, California

The absolute best and most moist cornbread ever!

This is a very good and moist cornbread. really liked the flavor. Only thing is too much flour - causing it to have too much of a "cake" texture. Next time I make this I think I will add less flour and more cornmeal. Overall a very good cornbread,better than any other recipe I've tried.

I have used this recipe exclusively since the 2002 Taste of Home Recipe book was delivered. We always have this with Ham 'n Beans.

I have made this many times for my family. My kids LOVE this . . . we refer to it as "corncake" because it is so delicious. It reminds me of what is served at Marie Calender's restaurant.

I've been looking for a good corn bread recipe. I've tried several others but nothin compares to this one. I added chopped jalepeno for the hubby though. All in all, 5 stars! Oh don't forget to spread butter!

The only cornbread I make! So moist and buttery! It puts traditional cornbread to shame.
