Instructions

  1. First prepare the frozen corn kernels according to package instructions. Then set aside to completely cool.
  2. With a sharp knife, finely dice the red onions, fresh cilantro, and jalapeño (seeds removed for less heat). Crumble cojita cheese and shave parmesan if not already done so.
  3. In a large bowl, combine cooled corn, cilantro, onion, jalapeño and both cheeses. Mix until combined.
  4. In a small bowl, add all of the mexican cream ingredients. Whisk together.
  5. Pour the creamy sauce over the corn mixture. Use a rubber spatula to mix until everything is well coated.
  6. Divide the Mexican Street Corn Dip into 8 individual cups. Add in a few tortilla chips, give it a squeeze of fresh lime juice and enjoy!

Notes

  • If you have time, grilling fresh corn cobs to give it a little char is my favorite way to elevate the flavors in this recipe.
  • You can store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. It’s amazing on top of chicken, on tacos, or mixed into a salad.
