Ingredients
- 2 cans sweet corn 15 oz each - drained
- 8 oz cream cheese - softened
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup chopped green onions
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ cup cooked and crumbled bacon - optional (equals about 3-4 cooked strips)
- To serve with: - tortilla chips, pita chips, crackers, or veggies
Instructions
- Blend the cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. Next add sour cream, and mayonnaise and mix until smooth.
- Stir in drained corn, shredded cheddar, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. If using, add crumbled bacon and mix until evenly combined.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let flavors meld. If the dip thickens too much, stir in a little extra sour cream or mayo before serving.
- Stir before serving and transfer to a bowl. Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggies for dipping. This dip tastes even better the next day!
Recipe Notes:
- Use Softened Cream Cheese – Let it sit at room temperature for easy mixing and a smooth texture.
- Drain Corn Well – Excess liquid can make the dip watery, so drain it completely before adding.
- Chill for Best Flavor – The dip needs at least 1 hour in the fridge for the flavors to meld. For even better taste, chill for 2+ hours or overnight.
- Adjust Consistency – If the dip thickens too much after chilling, stir in an extra spoonful of sour cream or mayo before serving.
- Customize the Spice Level – Add diced jalapeños, cayenne, or a dash of hot sauce if you like a spicy kick.
- Make it Lighter – Swap Greek yogurt for the mayo and sour cream for a healthier option.
- Storage – Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Do not freeze, as the dairy may separate.
