Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (15 oz) whole kernel corn (drained)
  • 1 can (15 oz) creamed cor
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
  • ½ cup butter (melted)
  • 1 box (8.5 oz) corn muffin mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish generously with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add both cans of corn to the cream cheese mixture and stir until well combined.
  4. Mix in the melted butter, eggs, sugar, salt, and pepper. Whisk thoroughly.
  5. Fold in 1½ cups of shredded cheddar cheese and the corn muffin mix. Stir gently until just combined.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of cheddar cheese over the top.
  7. Bake for 45-55 minutes until the center is set and the top is golden brown. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For a lighter version, substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream. You can also use reduced-fat cream cheese. This casserole can be made ahead of time and refrigerated before baking.
