In a large skillet, brown beef with onion and garlic.  Drain and rinse.  Meanwhile, prepare Golden Cornbread recipe, placing the mix into two 13 x 9″ pans rather than one.  Bake cornbread at 375 degrees for 7 minutes. While that is baking, add black beans, corn, tomato sauce, chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper to the meat.  Spread this filling on top of crusts that have been removed from oven.  Top with shredded cheese and bake for 20 more minutes.  Serve with diced tomatoes, sour cream, and salsa.  (Sides of salad and refried beans)
