Ingredients
  

Casserole Ingredients
  • 1 can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 can creamed corn
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 box corn muffin mix
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar (plus more for topping if you like)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • to taste black pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9x9 baking dish.
  2. In a big mixing bowl, stir together creamed corn, whole corn, sour cream, melted butter, and corn muffin mix. Fold in cheddar, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread the mixture in the baking dish. If you want extra cheese, sprinkle a small handful on top.
  4. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes until the center is set and the edges are lightly golden.
  5. Let it rest for 10 minutes to firm up.
  6. Scoop and serve warm. Optionally, garnish with chopped chives.

Notes

Melt the butter and let it cool slightly before mixing to prevent curdling the sour cream. For larger crowds, double the recipe using a 9x13 pan and adjust the baking time. If the oven runs hot, check for doneness early.
