The Corniest Cheddar Cornbread

• 1-1/2 cup All-purpose Flour
• 1-1/4 cup Corn Meal
• 1/2 cups Super Fine Sugar
• 2-1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Cumin
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 stick Butter, Melted And Cooled
• 2/3 cups Buttermilk
• 3/4 cups Mascarpone Cheese
• 3 whole Eggs
• 2 ears Fresh Corn, Husked And Cut From The Cob
• 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese, Divided

1. Preheat oven to 400u0b0F and generously spray an 8 x 8 baking dish with cooking spray.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, cumin and paprika together. In another bowl, whisk the melted butter, buttermilk, mascarpone, and eggs together. Pour those wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk it all together just until it becomes a batter. Don't overwork it.
3. Fold in a heaping cup of the corn kernels, reserving the rest. Then fold in half of the cheddar. Pour the batter and spread it out evenly in the pan, then sprinkle the remaining corn kernels and cheddar on top.
4. Bake for about 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the very center comes out cleanly. Let it cool for about half an hour, then cut and serve immediately! It also toasts up really well as leftovers.
