Place casserole in microwave. Heat until mixture is bubbling hot (about 15 minutes on HIGH; check half way through.) Meanwhile, mix cornbread according to directions, adding the 2 teaspoons sugar. Remove casserole from microwave. Spread grated cheese over top of bean mixture and put teaspoonfuls of cornbread batter on top of casserole and put casserole in preheated 400 degree oven for 20 minutes, or until cornbread mixture turns golden brown.
