I did it!! Finally skillet cornbread that tastes just like what we used to make! Moist on the inside and crisp on the bottom. He loved it and I'm tickled pink. Sadly, he only got these two pieces for now. I cubed the rest, mixed it with my homemade bread and baked it all into stuffing mix for Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I am very thankful for your support and friendship. big hugs
