This is quite nice as the previous reviewer exclaimed!!! And, I also used buttermilk in place of milk. I only had skim on hand and didn't think that would work as well. Also, had a cup of corn leftover from dinner the day b/f and so added that as well. Your right about it not being as sweet as normal cornbread recipes. Just the same, it had great cornbread taste. Made it in an 8x8. Thanks Julie~! Made for SpringPAC 08.
