I tried this recipe today and made the Chili Cheese Pie from this site and it was very delicious!
I just cut the sugar ammount to half and it was perfection. I've never used the Jiffy Corn Muffin mix but this cornbread is worderful. Fluffy, light, very yummy! Hubby was so happy with the pie and there wasn't much left of it. I served it w/ endive & tomato salat. Thank you for sharing.

I have been using this for a time now and love it. I found that it fits in a mason jar, I do not add the oil if I am going to be putting it in back stock. Now that it is winter I will be making up some to put in my back stock, to have to make with Chili and Navy Bean soup.
