Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, milk, sugar, salt, black pepper, and beaten eggs. Mix well until fully combined.
Stir in 1 cup of the crushed Ritz crackers and 3/4 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese into the corn mixture.
Pour the corn mixture into the prepared pie dish and spread evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of crushed Ritz crackers with the melted butter until well coated.
Sprinkle the buttery cracker mixture evenly over the top of the corn mixture.
Scatter the remaining 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the Ritz cracker topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the pie is set in the center and the topping is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Ritzy Corn Pie warm as a side dish!
