This is a recipe I adapted from one of my old cookbooks for my family. I didn't have transportation to drive to the store just to get a box of Jiffy Mix. Well, now after I made this, my family wants this over ANY premix. It is definitely Family Approved :-D.

(Any Milk = Whole, Low-Fat 2 or 1%, or Fat-Free). For this recipe add 1-1/2 teaspoons vinegar to the 1-1/3 cups milk. If you do a half-recipe, try ¾ teaspoon vinegar to the 2/3 cup milk - also use an 8"x8" square pan for baking, and reduce baking time to 20 to 25 minutes.
