I think the original recipe called for a small can
of chilies, drained. I used 1 whole jalapeno, sliced...
seeds and all, for some nice heat. This can be eliminated
all together if desired.
This recipe was originally my sister, Willows.
It is moist and buttery.
I've made it for years! It's shown here as our favorite
way to eat it....nestled on top a bowl of meaty chili.

  8. Mmmm, perfect. I make a lot of chili, but I didn't like the last cornbread recipe I tried. So I'll try this one for sure. I love all your recipes!

  9. That looks yummy.

    And your sister is Willow, as in Willow that had the cyber ball? No wonder there was so much creativity and imagination there. I was just amazed looking at all the comments on the posts. They were so fun.

    BPG ~ This isn't your typical dry, crumbly cornbread...it's very dense and moist!

  16. Hubby would absolutely love this! You know, you and Willow need to compile a cookbook. I'd certainly buy a copy but it would have to autographed, of course:^P....
