Description

Make this simple, hot cream cheese corn dip for your next gathering. It is a cheesy, satisfying appetizer that bakes up perfectly in one dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, drained corn, Monterey Jack cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, diced green chilies (with liquid), and taco seasoning. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  4. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly throughout.
  5. If desired, sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.
  6. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or crackers for the best melty texture.

Notes

  • To keep this hot corn dip melty on your buffet, place the baking dish inside a slow cooker set to the ‘Keep Warm’ setting after it comes out of the oven.
  • For a Mexican corn dip variation, add 1/4 cup of pickled jalapeño slices to the mixture before baking.
  • Assemble this easy party dip up to 24 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate. Add 5-10 minutes to the baking time if baking straight from the refrigerator.
