In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together. Add the eggs, beat well, then add the cornmeal. Sift flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in alternately with the buttermilk. Pour into a greased 8-inch square pan or iron skillet (I prefer this) and bake at 375 F. for 30-35 minutes, or until done. If muffins are desired, bake in a greased muffin pan 15 to 20 minutes.

NOTES : *I like using White Lily self-rising cornmeal. This raises high and is alittle sweeter than regular cornbread, but its the way my DH likes it. Great crumbled up in an ice cold glass of milk and eat with a spoon....my favorite way!
