Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9-inch cast iron skillet.
Whisk together the cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the beaten egg, melted butter, milk, and cream-style corn, stirring until just combined.
Pour the cornbread batter into the prepared dish and bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
Remove the cornbread and reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C). Spread enchilada sauce on top.
Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, then add the remaining enchilada sauce, salsa, and chili powder.
Spread the beef mixture over the cornbread layer and top with shredded cheese.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.
Let sit for 5-10 minutes, then serve with optional toppings.
