Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish with non-stick spray or smear a bit of butter on the surface to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and melted butter. Mix until well blended and creamy.
- Add the drained sweet corn to the bowl and mix until the corn is evenly distributed.
- Fold in the diced jalapeño peppers, ensuring they are evenly mixed throughout the casserole mixture.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the top is lightly golden.
- Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it to set slightly.
- Serve the corn casserole warm. It can be enjoyed as a side dish for any meal or as a delightful addition to a potluck.
Tips:
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure the cream cheese and butter are at room temperature before starting. This makes them easier to mix and results in a smoother texture.
- Drain the Corn: Drain the cans of sweet corn thoroughly to prevent excess moisture from making the casserole too watery.
- Adjust Spice Level: You can adjust the amount of jalapeno peppers based on your spice preference. For a milder taste, reduce the amount or remove the seeds from the jalapenos.
- Mix Evenly: Make sure you mix all the ingredients evenly to ensure every bite has a consistent flavor and texture.
- Baking Dish Choice: Use a well-greased baking dish to prevent sticking and to ensure easy serving.
