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 best corn bread ever. Every one that eats this corn bread wants the recipe. It is easy to make and is such a hit.

This was an excellent recipe; the best I think I've tried for corn bread. I'll be using this one from now on.

I halved the recipe because it's just my husband and myself. Wished now, after tasting it, that I would have made the full one. We will have leftovers for breakfast tomorrow morning.

This was definitely the real deal! Texture and flavor were perfect. I will make this one again and again.

Easy and makes a batch big enough for my ginormous family! I used buttermilk, as I was low on milk and had some buttermilk that needed to be used up. Delectable!

This was a very good recipe. We had it with a little butter and drizzle of dark Karo syrup and it was delish!

I recommended this recipe to my mom...she just made it for group of friends and they all raved about it.

My family loved this. My husband calls it "cornbread cake." I can't say that it is my new go-to cornbread recipe, but I will make it again.

A simple, delicious recipe. I've made it twice, and will make it many more times to come!

I've been making this recipe again, and again, and again... It's THAT good.
