 Derek (Alaska) says:
Everyone at work loved the recipe. I didn't use velveeta since I didn't have any. I thought it was a strange recipe for not having any liquids......thinking that maybe the velveeta would replace buttermilk. Since I didn't add any velveeta I added a cup of buttermilk and it turned out perfectly. This decision was done because even without any cheese, the mixture wasn't of a "Batter" consistency like the instructions suggest. So I felt that something was incorrect.
