I was searching for a side dish to go with this Chicken Tortilla Soup, when I came across this recipe.
I'll be honest, the Mexican flavor was weak. But, this was the BEST cornbread I have ever made!
So, I am going to use at least one 4 oz. can of green chilies (or maybe 2) next time to get the "Mexican" flavor I was hoping for. And if you omit the chilies all together, it's just a darn good cornbread!

Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup white sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
- 1 or 2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chile peppers, drained (original recipe is 1/2 of 4 oz can)
- 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time. Blend in cream corn, chiles, Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture to corn mixture; stir until smooth. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, until a toothpick inserted into center of the pan comes out clean.
