Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
To the cream cheese, add the melted butter, milk, eggs, and honey. Whisk together until fully incorporated.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the cornbread cool in the dish for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm with a dollop of butter or a drizzle of honey for extra indulgence.
