Elote, a roasty roadside corn on the cob slathered with mayo and dressed with grated cheese and spices, is the inspiration for this ultra creamy summertime side. No matter the occasion, nothing can beat this sweet and savory Mexican-inspired corn dip. Enjoy the dip with tortilla chips to kick off your meal, or enjoy it alongside!

Cooking Steps

1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drain and rinse corn, then pat dry with paper towels.

2

Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large, preferably ovenproof, pan over medium-high heat. Add corn; cook, stirring occasionally, until corn is charred, 4-6 minutes (if corn begins to pop, cover pan). Season with salt and pepper.

3

Turn off heat; transfer to a large bowl. Stir in cream cheese, sour cream, two packets Mexican Cheese Blend, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Return mixture to pan or place in a baking dish; top with remaining Mexican Cheese Blend.

4

Bake until bubbly, 12-15 minutes. Serve with blue corn chips on the side for dipping.

5

Recipe Suggestion: Have some cilantro on hand? Roughly chop some and sprinkle on top.

  • Flavor: Many found it tasty, but some felt it needed more seasoning for authentic Mexican street corn flavor 🌽.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and simple to make, though opening many small cream cheese and sour cream packets was tedious.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding spices like chili powder, cilantro, lime juice, or jalapeños for more kick and complexity.
  • Portions: Generous amount of dip, but not enough chips provided; some found it too rich to finish.
  • Texture: Several noted it was very creamy, with some wanting more corn to balance the dairy.
