Spicy Corn Casserole

This is probably one of the easiest recipes I make for Easter, and it never fails to get rave reviews. It’s creamy, a little spicy, and incredibly comforting. Even better? It reheats beautifully… and lowkey, I think it’s even better the next day!

Spicy Corn Casserole

Servings: 12 people
Course: Side Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 2 8 oz packages of cream cheese
  • 2 sticks of butter
  • 5 15 oz cans Green Giant white shoepeg corn, drained
  • 1 12 oz jar diced jalapeño peppers, drained

Method
 

  1. In a medium saucepan over low heat, add the cream cheese and butter.
  2. Warm slowly, whisking continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. (This takes a little patience! Keep stirring so it doesn’t separate.)
  3. Once creamy, add in the drained corn and diced jalapeños. Stir until everything is well coated.
  4. Pour the mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
If you're making it ahead:
  1. You can prep this the day before and store it covered in the refrigerator. When ready to bake, let it sit at room temperature for about an hour.
  2. Bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
