Cornbread Cake

Cornbread Cake. After having baked my first Donut Muffin, I thought I'd continue the trend with another food mash-up. This time combining cake mix with cornbread mix. I know it sounds bizarre and a little out there, but in fact it's actually rather tasty.

My first introduction to Cornbread Cake was at our summer block party. . . I could not stop eating it. It was clearly cornbread but sweeter and super moist. My neighbor L, the woman who made the dish, told me it was a Marie Callender's recipe which simply consisted of cornbread mix and yellow cake mix. Brilliant!

I don't suggest you make this for every time you're craving cornbread as I'm sure, if you're like me, you won't be able to stop yourself from eating half the pan, but I do suggest you try it at least once. . . you won't regret it.
