Alternatively:
1 c. packaged biscuit mix: 1 cup cornmeal: 1 tblsp baking powder: 2 eggs: 1 c. milk: 1/3 c. honey: 1/4 c butter or margarine melted. Mix dry ingredients. In small bowl, beat eggs til blended; then stir in milk, honey and butter ( the honey will come out of the measuring cup best if you put the melted butter in there first). Pour egg mixture into dry mixture and stir just until evenly moistened. Pour batter into 8" greased baking pan. bake 400 degree oven 30 minutes or until clean test. Let cool slightly, then cut into squares and serve warm.
Honey Butter: in small bowl beat together 1/2 c. butter and 1/4 c honey til creamy and well blended. mound into small crock and serve.

As you can see the recipes are basically the same. The Sunset recipe states it yields a fine crumb, non crumbly cornbread, which ought to be a bit sweeter and more cake like than the Farm Journals since it has more egg and more honey. Enjoy.
