Corny cake

So I don’t like kernel corn. I pick it out of dishes to make them palatable. I eat most foods, don’t like onions, accepted them cooked because they lost most of the flavor, but don’t buy them as an independent, where I take care of myself.

I saw that corn cake was a Mexican dessert, so I made up a version that doesn’t have corn kernels. The jury is still out, and this version has one difference from the version I made, because I think it will improve the recipe. If I keep playing with this erudic compulsion, I’ll add amendments later. Anyways on to the recipe.
