Hot Cheesy Corn Dip

I have been looking forward to corn season for a while and since it started I have been eating a cob of corn every day. I just can't seem to get enough of that sweet corny goodness. I had bookmarked more than a few corn recipes that I wanted to try and on the top of that list was this one for a hot corn dip that I found on Where’s My Damn Answer?. The recipe is originally from Emeril Lagasse on the Food Network. I really liked the sound of a warm sweet corn dip with savoury cheese and mayonnaise along with a touch of heat. I got the chance to make the hot corn dip on the weekend and it turned out to be even better than I imagined. It was so good that I ended up skipping dinner and having another serving of tortilla chips and hot corn dip. The dip was nice and creamy and the sweetness of the corn perfectly balanced the heat of the jalapenos and the cayenne pepper. I am looking forward to making this again.

This looks great Kevin! I am going to have to try it! I love having stuff like this for dinner. I would have likely done the same thing! Perfect for summer parties!
Ohhh I beat Veggie Girl in terms of first-posting!
Kevin I don't know how you find time to make all these wonderful dishes.
I am a HUGE fan of corn. I eat a TON of corn relish. Have you ever made that? I will have to try this hot corn dip of yours.
Kevin, your corn dip looks amazing. Great pic as usual..Are you a photographer in RL?
That looks oh so good! We just had corn on the cob last night for dinner! Got to love it!
This is a keeper!!! I like this type of dip!
I did one of Emeril's dips for the holidays a few years ago that was a hit...it was his Hot Crab Dip...I called it my $30.00 crab dip 'cos the jumbo lump meat was so bloody expensive...
You've got me thinking I might do this again soon.
Thanks for the shout out as well!!!

My husband and I love corn and this looks great.
I've never heard of a hot corn dip - yum! Kind of like a cheesy goey fritter.
How will I be able to catch up on all your awesome posts since I've been away? This looks yummy!!!
Hi Kevin
I am so glad that you liked the dip - I have made it a number of times and it is such a big hit that I have even been told don't come over unless that is in hand!! Thanks for your support.
What happened to you man? You were invisible in weekend? I was kind of worried about you. Don't leave without a notice.

This looks scrummy, Kevin. I traded tomatoes for corn with a neighbor so will have to give this a try.
This looks good. I think I, like you, could make a meal of dip too.
Corn cobs in the fridge calling out for this transformation. I worship your kitchen.
Oh Kevin, you've done it again! This looks terrific, and I could see eating this at home as well as bringing it to potlucks. I've not seen this type of dip before, and man I sure do want some of it! YUM!
Can I ask the dimensions of the dish you used to bake it in?? I think it looks so much classier in that dish than in a pan and we are considering making this for a party on Sat!!
Sues
Oh Yum! I could eat a bowl of that while watching FoodTV! Mmmm. I'm going to have to use that recipe soon!
Terrific! That dip looks so scrumptious!
Cheers,
Rosa

This looks great!!! I love Corn and anything you can dip with tortilla chips is even better!
I will be making that! looks amazing!

This is delicous I love the corn and peppers yummy!
We Are Not Martha: The dish is 5 1/2 inches across and 2 inches deep.
Sara: I roughly tried to halve the recipe as I would be the only one eating it. I of course could not help but tweak it a bit at the same time.
This looks so delicious Kevin! I've never had a corn dip before..I bet it tastes awesome!
I'm having a Food and Football event (tomorrow's post)...this would be perfect for it!!
I always look forward to corn season as well and love making corn salads. I found a corn muffin recipe last year that I really liked too. This dip looks great!
This is delicious. I make a similar corn dip with chipotles. Always a crowd pleaser.
Excellent and sounds easy dip kevin.It is a crowd pleaser.
YUMMMMM
Ooo this looks so good! I love hot dips like this.
Hi Kevin - we are making your Hot Corn Dip tonight. Two versions, one without peppers and onions for the kids. I'm sure everyone will be happy!
Really great recipe. I used a creamed corn once and it was good too.
Are you trying to kill me? This looks amazing!
It's bubbling away in the oven & looking good...make that great!! Thanks Kevin!
I just wanted you to know that I'm planning on making this Sunday evening and posting about it on my website Monday (www.feedthemoose.blogspot.com).
Thanks so much!
i made this tonight... SO GOOD!
I made this tonight as an appetizer for our taco salad...we didn't get to the salads! We only ate the dip.
YUM
I cannot wait to try this! I love, love, love corn. You just reminded me of a good cold corn dip recipe I have! Good one Kevin, as always :)
i've never heard of corn dip before, but it looks so good!
Just to let u know that I adapted this and make my own version last week! It was great!! So so good!! Thanks soo much for the idea.
I took this to a potluck birthday party last weekend, and it was a big hit! Thanks!
Made this dip over labor day weekend, i added some taco seasoning, goya cilantro y achiote seasoning, and fresh chopped cilantro..and generous amount of cuming power..and a bit of sihracha sauce..and i also used mexican blend cheese. AMAZING! topped it off with a fresh pico de gallo after it came out of the oven..it was TO DIE FOR! thank u for this recipe!!!
I just made this for our little football get together, it was amazing using fresh Maryland sweet corn. I used a bit more cayenne, a bit less mayo, and 5-6 dashes of chipotle tabasco. Even the leftovers were great.

I just found this recipe and had to try it with some fresh corn. It was a wonderful appetizer that made a great pairing with my Broiled Tomatoes & Cheese.
I have never, ever, seen food disappear as fast as the hot corn dip ... I did put it under the broiler for the last few minutes to get it a little more browned. nice work on the recipe!
I just found this recipe and made it tonight - thank you! Everyone loved it and I'll definitely make again...
I was craving corn like nobody's business and came across this recipe so I HAD to try it! Made a few adjustments... added some black beans and a little bit of cream cheese and it was AMAZING. Looking forward to trying more recipes from your blog!
I tried this last night with margaritas(was going to make carne asada tacos too..but we had the dip for dinner instead!)
It was amazingly good and addictive..
Thanks!
Loved this dip, everyone at our beach party requested this recipe. Thank you for sharing it.
I found this recipe and made it. I did have to improvise on a few of the ingredients but I was not disappointed, it was delicious! Thank you.
My kids are going to LOVE this recipe. In fact, I think they're going to love it tonight
As I was putting this together I was thinking about how "basic" the ingredients seemed, wondering about the flavor of the end product. Wow, it was fantastic! I made your pizza dip a week later---same thing! I am loving how your recipes are a bit of a throw back to simple GOOD FOOD! Thanks Kevin!
I am wondering if there is a link to print this? Looks amazing, would love to make for a party this weekend, but can't figure out a way to print it without printing the entire page.
Cathy: I add a link to a printable version above the ingredients.
Ooo, looks delicious :D
This looks good... and after using your recipe to make it, now I definitely know that it IS good. Goodness gracious, good is pretty much an understatement. Love this recipe and so did my party guests!
Thanks and keep 'em coming because I'm coming back for more; that, you can bet.
Has anyone tried it with frozen or canned corn? It's all I can get most of the year here in Latvia.
Anonymous: Thawed frozen corn will work and I presume that canned and drained would as well though I have not tried it yet.
This is DELICIOUS! Thank you for sharing this recipe. WE LOVE IT! I did only cheddar cheese and it's fabulous!
This recipe is so good!! Do you think this will freeze well? I'm trying to make food in advance for a party.
Anonymous: I have never tried freezing it. I think your best bet would be to fully assemble it and then put it in the freezer and bake it for the first time after it has thawed.
Thank you for the response.
Thanks for the recipe! We have made it twice in one week, it is so good! (We did leave out the jalapenos, as one of us prefers less than a medium "heat")Thinking of adding some black beans to turn it into a meal :)
Anonymous: I like the sound of both adding the black beans and of calling it a meal! :)
this is seriously one of the best dips i have ever made. my friends go nuts when i bust it out at parties and it has become a staple at our family holiday parties. thanks kevin!
