Recipe Instructions

Combine cornmeals, cake mix, baking powder, salt and cayenne in a bowl, set aside. Combine milk, buttermilk, and oil, eggs, brown sugar and honey in a bowl and mix well. Add to the cornmeal mixture and mix gently - there should be no lumps, but do not over-mix. Fold in the mayonnaise

Let rest, covered, in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or up to overnight.

Preheat oven to 400F.

Spoon the cold batter into a greased muffin tin or a cast iron skillet. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

In the meantime, make the glaze by heating butter in a saucepan until melted. Stir in jalapeño and bell pepper. Bring to a simmer. Stir in honey and cayenne. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

Drizzle over Famous Dave's Corn Bread.

Note: You can make the glaze ahead of time and store it, covered, in the refrigerator. Re-heat before serving.
