Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups canned sweet corn, drained
1 cup cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
1/2 cup diced jalapeños
1/4 cup diced red onion
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Additional shredded cheese (optional)
Sliced green onions (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream. Use an electric mixer or a whisk to blend them together until smooth and creamy.
Add the drained sweet corn to the mixture. Stir gently to combine.
Incorporate the shredded cheese into the mixture, reserving some for topping later if desired.
Add the diced jalapeños, red onion, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until all ingredients are fully combined.
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish. If you want a baked version, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spread the dip into a baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until it is bubbly and golden on top.
If serving cold, refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Top with chopped cilantro, additional cheese, and green onions just before serving.
