Corn Pone

Yes, I realise I'm writing myself into some awful joke by making corn pone whilst residing in Nebraska. Gosh, if only I could work football into this...

This is a heavy sort of cornbread-more like a substantial cake. I dressed it up a bit with some parsley on top.

You Will Need:

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup butter

2 eggs

1 1/2 cups cornmeal

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

3 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups milk

Preheat oven to 350.

Grease a 9x13 pan.

Cream together the sugar and butter until light. Add the eggs and mix well. In a small bowl, mix the dry ingredients together. Add to eggs/sugar/butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Don't over mix. Pour into pan, decorate as desired (roasted red pepper is nice also) and bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden.
