    In had sweet cornbread at a restaurant this weekend that was to die for. It was so light - the consistency of white cake and just as sweet as could be. I'm looking for a recipe. Tried a google search and made one that seemed like it would work, but it wasn't sweet or light enough. It tasted fine, but not exactly what I was looking for. Anyone have a good recipe? THANKS!!

    Can you stir some cornmeal and sour cream into a white cake mix? Sounds like that would do the trick. Use the eggs, less water and cut down on the oil if you use full fat sour cream.

    You might like this one. I have had it for some time from a friend.

    SWEET AND LIGHT CORNBREAD

    INGREDIENTS:

    1 cup cornmeal
    1 cup flour
    1 1/2 tbsps baking powder
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 tsp salt
    1 1/2 cups milk
    2 eggs, beaten
    1/4 cup butter, melted
    METHOD:
    Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, sift together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Whisk milk, eggs and butter into the dry ingredients. Continue to blend until all lumps are removed, taking care not to over-whip. Spray an 8-inch-square baking pan with vegetable spray or lightly grease with butter. Pour batter into the greased pan and bake 20-25 minutes. NOTE: 1/2 cup fresh kernel corn and 1 tbsp chopped jalapenos may be added to this recipe for an interesting twist.

    The best recipe I have found for corn bread is to buy a box of Krusteaz Natural Honey Corn Bread mix and follow the directions on the box!

    I've seen that in the store, but never tried it. But I will!
