| 1 | teaspoon | Melted butter or bacon grease |

Directions
Sift corn meal & salt together & scald with the boiling water. Add cold milk to this mixture quickly & stir to keep the meal from lumping. Add eggs & beat well. Add baking powder when just ready to put in oven. Add butter last. Pour into well-greased muffin tins which have been heated in oven until almost smoking. Bake at 475 until well browned. Makes 16 large muffins.
