The cornbread that's popular over here is barely corny and hardly bread.
I was introduced to this back in the seventies when my girlfriend (now
wife) cajoled me to go with her to the Mormon reading center for a
rendezvous with her friend who passed the recipe on to me. I might have
been some kind of sacred Mormon document for all I know because there
seemed to a lot of secrecy involved. Anyway I can't keep this a secret
any longer and here's the recipe.

Hawaiian Cornbread

3 cups Bisquick
1/4 cup cornmeal
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup melted butter
1 cup sugar
1 1/4 C milk
3 eggs

Mix everything in a bowl and bake in a greased 9 X 13 pan at 350 until done.
