1 pkg. Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
1/2 cup coconut
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup powdered sugar
cream (milk or water if you want)
Preheat oven to 350. Mix muffin mix according to package directions. Stir in coconut and pecans. Pour into 3 mini-loaf pans. Bake 15-20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Mix the powdered sugar with the cream (milk/water) using just enough to allow it to melt and drizzle. Spoon over hot bread. Sprinkle with more coconut and chopped pecans (optional)
Comment: My order at a nearby BBQ house came with a sweet mini-loaf of cornbread. I don't normally like sweet cornbread but gave it a try. As I took a bite I noticed how moist it was and that it wasn't very grainy. This made me start thinking about how good this would be with coconut and pecans added making it a dessert instead of just a bread. I remembered how sweet Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix is and decided to give it a try. I didn't hit the nail on the head, but I came close. The Jiffy Mix did have a bit more of a grainy texture but it still worked beautifully. And my food testers loved it too! One stood eating her whole loaf while we were standing there talking about it. She said it was that good.
