This is an old southern recipe my daddy use to make when we were kids. It's one big biscuit baked in an iron skillet. We would have this on a Saturday or Sunday morning, when daddy was off, served with syrup and butter. I remember we would mash up cold butter in the syrup and sop up the syrup with our slice of the hot Hoe Cake....

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- 2. Melt butter in the bottom of 10-inch iron skillet while oven is preheating. Be careful not to burn your butter.
- 3. Mix flour, buttermilk, ½ cup softened butter and baking soda together. Spoon batter into hot skillet. This batter will be thick like a drop biscuit batter. Smooth out the best you can but don't worry about it not being smooth. Brush melted butter on top of hoe cake.
- 4. Bake for 20 minutes or until top of hoe cake is golden brown. Cut into wedges and serve with syrup and butter.
