Title: Corn Sticks
Categories: Bread Southern
Yield: 10 Servings

2		Eggs
2	c	Buttermilk
1	ts	Sugar
1	ts	Soda
2	c	Sifted white corn meal
3	tb	Melted shortening
1	ts	Salt
3	ts	Baking powder

Beat eggs together until light. Add milk, shortening and salt. Add meal, being careful in putting in, as meal varies and the batter should be a medium batter. Beat smooth. Grease and heat stick pans. Sift in the baking powder and dissolve the soda in a spoonful of cold water. Add to the mixture, stir well and pour into molds. Bake in good hot oven until brown and crusty--about 15 to 20 minutes. Corn sticks need a batter some thinner than muffins.
