Make this simple, cheesy corn casserole using Jiffy mix for a comforting side dish perfect for potlucks and holiday dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15 oz) can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 (15 oz) can cream-style corn
  • 1 (8 oz) package Jiffy corn muffin mix
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 (4 oz) can diced green chiles
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped jalapeños or pickled jalapeños
  • Optional: Fresh cilantro or green onions, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 or 9×9-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, Jiffy corn muffin mix, sour cream, melted butter, 1 cup of the cheddar cheese, green chiles, chili powder, cumin, and salt.
  3. Stir the mixture until it is just combined. Add chopped jalapeños now if you are using them.
  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
  5. Bake uncovered for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the center sets and the top looks lightly golden.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese over the top. Return the dish to the oven for 5 to 7 more minutes, until the cheese melts.
  7. Let the casserole cool for 5 to 10 minutes before you garnish it with cilantro or green onions and serve.

Notes

  • This casserole is a great choice for Thanksgiving side dishes or Christmas dinner.
  • You can substitute Monterey Jack cheese for some of the cheddar for a different flavor profile.
  • For a sweeter version, add 1 tablespoon of honey to the base mixture.
