Maggie’s Sweet Cornbread

My sweet daughter Maggie introduced us to this recipe and it quickly became part of the family repertoire.  Cornbread always reminds me of my Grandpa Walker. He had these amazingly cool corn bread molds in the shape of ears of corn. I am hoping that I inherit them one day because somehow they always made the cornbread taste a little better. Sweet cornbread from a sweet girl.
