Andra Sedai’s WHITE Corn Casserole
Andra Mikolan
This is a great dish for potlucks, and we have it for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner at my house. It is NOT a low-fat food.
8 ounces cream cheese (one block)
1/2 cup of butter (one stick)
2 cans of white corn
1 can diced mild green chilies (I get the fire-roasted ones)
Ground white pepper, Salt, and Garlic all to taste.
Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Melt the cream cheese and butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add spices and mix well.
Remove from heat.
Drain corn.
Add corn and chillies to cheese mixture.
Mix well.
Pour into medium casserole dish.
Sprinkle cheese until top is covered.
You can refrigerate it overnight if you aren't serving it that day.
Before serving, bake in oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted.
I sprinkle the top with paprika before baking, but that's just for appearances.
It's a big hit at potlucks. My mom and I have to make it for something every couple of months. We get requests.
