Southwestern Cornbread with Chili Honey-Lime Butter
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 25 min.
YIELD: 15 servings (1/2 cup butter).
I put a wonderful twist on my grandma's classic cornbread. The teachers at my kids' school thought it was sensational. Any leftover flavored butter can be kept in the refrigerator for about a week, and used in other great recipes or on seeded toast. —Elizabeth Charpiot, Santa Rosa, California
