Ingredients
- 6 strips bacon cut into pieces
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 11 oz cans Mexicorn well drained (sweet corn with bell pepper pieces)
- 1 Jalapeño seeds removed and finely diced
- ½ cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 scallions thinly sliced, divided
- corn chips for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F (175C).
- Cook bacon in a 9” skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp and deep brown. While bacon cooks, prepare the rest of the dip.
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Add corn, jalapeno, cheese, and one sliced scallion (reserve remaining scallion slices) and stir gently with a spatula until combined.
- Once bacon is finished cooking, remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate, drain grease from skillet (I save one of the corn cans for draining the grease into) and use a wad of paper towels to wipe the skillet mostly clean.
- Add about half of the bacon to the cream cheese mixture (reserve remaining bacon) and stir until combined. Spread mixture into the skillet you cooked the bacon in.
- Cover loosely with foil and transfer to 350F (175C) preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until heated through.
- Remove dip, stir with a spoon, then top with reserved scallion and bacon before serving warm.

Notes
- If you don’t have an oven-proof skillet, spread the dip into a 9” pie plate to bake and serve.
- You can substitute 4 cups of fresh sweet corn cut off the cob and ¼ cup finely chopped red and green pepper.
- I like a blend of mozzarella and cheddar cheese, but you could just use 1 cup of mozzarella or 1 cup of cheddar instead.
- This dip is best served immediately after preparing/baking, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place in an oven-safe container and cover with foil, heat in 350F (175C) preheated oven until heated through.
