My niece, Kristie, makes this when we all get together. My dad says, "no way, give me real cornbread," but he doesn't like broccoli. Sorry, Dad, this is great stuff!

    -- Note: this cornbread is very moist, not grainy and coarse in texture like a lot of cornbreads. Don't let that fool you as to whether it's done or not. Do the toothpick test.
