Hot Corn Dip
Description
The Hot Corn Dip combines equal parts of white and yellow canned corn, drained, with diced tomatoes and mild diced green chiles. Cream cheese is blended in softened form to create a rich, creamy base. Seasoning with chili powder, cumin, and garlic salt infuses the dip with southwestern-inspired flavors. Optional fresh cilantro can be added for a fresh herbal note.
This mixture is baked in a greased dish at 350°F until heated through and slightly bubbly, allowing the cream cheese to melt and flavors to meld. The result is a warm, creamy dip with a balance of sweet corn, savory spice, and tangy tomato pieces.
Serve warm with dippables such as corn chips, tortilla chips, Fritos, pretzels, crusty bread, or crackers. It can be prepared ahead and stored chilled before baking. Leftovers keep well refrigerated or frozen and can be reheated by various methods including microwave or oven.
Keeping the dip warm during serving can be done using a crock pot, chafing dish, or hot plate set to warm.
