  • Add 4 ounces of softened margarine, 5 eggs, and milk to the mixer bowl and stir to blend.
  • Add the dry ingredient mixture to the liquids in the mixing bowl. Mix on low speed. (Do not overmix or cornbread will be tough and rubbery.)
  • Spray one sheet pan (18" x 26" x 1") with pan release spray and pour batter into the sprayed sheet pan.
  • Bake at 375 degrees F for 15 minutes.
  • Allow the cornbread to cool, then crumble it into pieces for the dressing recipe.
