Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 3 cans corn 14.5 oz cans, drained well
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise recommended Hellmann's
- 8 oz shredded cheese recommended mild cheddar
- black pepper a dash
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). A hot oven is essential for achieving that perfectly melted cheese.
- Open the cans of corn and drain them well to remove excess liquid. This will help prevent the dish from becoming watery.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the drained corn, softened butter, mayonnaise, and shredded cheese. Stir everything together until well combined. Add a dash of black pepper for flavor.
- Pour the corn mixture into an oven-safe baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbly. The cheese should be melted and slightly browned.
- Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with tortilla chips, bread, or fresh veggies for dipping.

Notes
- Ensure the corn is thoroughly drained to avoid a watery mixture.
- Keep an eye on the baking to prevent the cheese from burning.
- You can assemble in advance and refrigerate; add a few extra minutes to baking time if baking cold.
- Try swapping mild cheddar for pepper jack cheese for a spicy twist.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
