Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.

Using a mixture of corn muffin mix and cake mix for semi-sweet cornbread is a smart move, but the real genius comes with a generous topping of mouthwatering, bacon-infused honey butter.

1 box (9 ounce size) Jiffy corn muffin mix, plus ingredients to prepare
1 box (9 ounce size) Jiffy yellow cake mix, plus ingredients to prepare
Honey Butter Recipe
1/4 pound butter
1/4 cup strained bacon drippings
4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
2/3 cup honey
Cornbread: Prepare each box according to package directions and gently fold together. Pour into a greased (with strained bacon fat) 9 x 13 pan. (You can sprinkle with a little crisp bacon.) Bake according to box directions for the yellow cake mix.
Honey Butter: Beat butter until light and creamy. Add drippings and bacon. Take honey and beat into butter mixture until light and fluffy (almost floats out of the bowl) Can be frozen (will last up to a year).

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

I love this recipe! The Cornbread is so soft and moist that it practically melts in your mouth.
