Ingredients

    1 Cup yellow cornmeal
    1 Cup stone ground cornmeal
    1 (9oz.) package yellow cake mix
    2 t. baking powder
    1 t. salt
    1/8 t. cayenne pepper

    These were amazing! I used egg subbstitute instead of real egg and all yellow cornmeal instead of part stone. And also 8oz creamed corn instead of MiracleWhip. - 2/28/11

    Bad
    Very dry. Do Not taste like Famous Dave's at all. Not worth trying. - 12/13/11

    This was a total waste of my time and money. This surely does not taste like Famous Dave muffins...NOT AT ALL. Like someone else said it came out super dry and crumbly and hard. Looked nothing like the actual muffins and tasted awful. All went in the trash. Don't waste your money and time. - 11/18/11

    Very Good
    The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 is because they're dry and crumbly, not moist. It was WAY better than the other attempt we made though. I've seen a glaze recipe come with a different one so I may try that glaze with this one if I can find it. - 8/7/11

    Incredible!
    Ive made this recipe 3 times. Mouth watering every time! Be careful not to overbake....highly recommend doing the toothpick test at around 25 mins of baking. Oh so delish! - 12/28/10

    Incredible!
    I calculated the total calories per serving and it turned out to be 266.8 calories for 9 servings. That included the cake mix. I used Jiffy yellow cake mix and it turned out amazing!! Just like the real thing! Next time I will use Splenda brown sugar to get rid of those calories. - 10/28/10

    Incredible!
    I like cornbread, but my boyfriend LOVES cornbread. I was told about Famous Dave's cornbread by a coworker who says it is the best cornbread he has ever had. I decided to look up the recipe and try it. It was fantastic and a huge hit. I left out the Miracle Whip but added in a can of cream corn YUM! - 9/28/10
