Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3 cups frozen corn kernels
  • 1/4 cup chopped pickled jalapenos
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 8 ounces grated provolone or Monterey jack cheese
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature

For Serving

  • Fritos or other chips/crackers for dipping

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a medium-sized baking dish or pie plate lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine frozen corn kernels, chopped pickled jalapenos, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, grated cheese (except for a small amount reserved for topping), and softened cream cheese. Mash the cream cheese into the corn mixture until well combined.
  3. Assemble Dip: Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish or pie plate. Sprinkle the remaining reserved cheese evenly over the top of the dip.
  4. Bake: Place the baking dish uncovered in the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and the top is browned to your liking.
  5. Rest and Serve: Allow the dip to rest for 5 minutes after baking to firm up slightly. Serve warm with Fritos or your favorite chips and crackers for dipping.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature to ensure it mixes smoothly with other ingredients.
  • You can adjust the amount of jalapenos according to your desired spice level.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding chopped fresh cilantro or a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
  • This dip can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving.
  • If you prefer, substitute the cheeses with your favorite melting cheese variety.
