Ingredients

• 1 recipe Southern Cornbread
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1-1/2 cups milk
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1-1/2 cups fully-cooked ham, cubed

Instructions

1. Prepare cornbread according to recipe directions.
2. When the cornbread is almost done, melt the butter in a large saucepan. Stir in the flour until smooth. Slowly add the milk while stirring constantly. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until the mixture thickens. Stir in cheese until melted. Add the ham and heat through.
3. Cut the cornbread into squares. If desired, cut each square in half through the middle as if cutting a biscuit in half. Serve the cornbread topped with the cheesy ham mixture.
