Buttery Corn Bread

I finally found a corn bread recipe I'm happy with.  It's moist, and very tasty.

2/3 C butter, softened
1 C sugar
3 eggs
1 2/3 C milk
2 1/3 C flour
1 C cornmeal
4 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt

Cream butter and sugar.  Add eggs and mix till eggs are fluffy.  Add all other ingredients, and mix well, making sure to scrape the sides of the bowl.  Pour into greased 13x9 baking pan.  Bake on 400 for 22-27 min., employing the toothpick test.  Enjoy!

I've also made half the recipe and used an 8x8 pan.  (It still needs the same bake time.)  Turned out great.
