Spoon Bread

Oh so good!  Reminds me of potroast in the winter at Mema and Pop-Pop's house!  This is a souffle, southern-style!

2 pints milk (2% or whole)
1 ½ c corn meal (yellow or white)
2 T butter
2 T sugar
2 t salt
6 egg yolks, beaten
6 egg whites, beaten stiff

At 150 degrees, scald milk (right before boiling); gradually add corn meal and cook slowly until thick and smooth, about five minutes, stirring constantly until thick.  Cool slightly and add butter, sugar and salt. Add egg yolks then fold in whites.  Bake in greased baking dish in 325-350 degree oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour. 

Serve immediately with plenty of butter. Serves 8.  Great leftover too with that leftover potroast...
