Print Recipe
This viral tiktok cornbread recipe is so delicious! It’s sweet, crispy, crunchy, buttery, super moist and beyond easy to make! It’s much sweeter than regular cornbread - almost like a cornbread cake - which is why I love it so much! It’s no wonder this recipe by Chopslap went viral on tiktok last year!

Ingredients

  • 1 8.5 oz box Jiffy Cornbread Mix
  • cup white sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • cup whole milk
  • cup sour cream
  • 4 tablespoon salted butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoon salted butter room temp, divided
  • 2 pinches flaky salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375F degrees.
  • Pour a box of jiffy cornbread into a large bowl and break up any clumps with a fork.
  • Add in all of the ingredients besides the 3 tablespoon of room temp salted butter and the flaky salt. Mix together and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Use 1 tablespoon of the salted room temp butter to grease your cast iron skillet (I recommend using a 10-11 inch cast iron) then sprinkle with 2 pinches of flaky salt.
  • Pour the batter in and gently smooth it out. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden and crispy on top.
  • Top with remaining 2 tablespoon of room temp salty butter while still hot so it melts into the crust. Serve and enjoy!
