Most people call these ingredients Corn Bread, Member OrganMeat

Corn Bread is NOT cake! No, I say. Corn Meal Cookies? This is GOOD! This is the way God intended these ingredients to be put together. When prepared as this recipe states, they are a delicious corny mealy delight! Variations: Try Meyer Lemon Zest in place of Lemon Extract and a thumbprint full of cranberries. Mmmmmm, mmm. This is good.
