*Slice cornbread into 12 even “bricks”, roughly 2″ x 2.5″ each, depending on size of pan. Leave overnight, uncovered.
Preparation

- Transfer soaked bricks to a cooling rack set over a sheet pan to rest.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a 10-inch nonstick saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Arrange 6 bricks in a single layer in the pan and cook, while turning as needed, until golden brown on all sides.
