Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 can (14.75 oz) cream-style corn
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 box (8.5 oz) cornbread mix (such as Jiffy)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons optional chopped chives or parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, sour cream, melted butter, and cornbread mix. Stir until well blended.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, reserving a small handful for topping if desired.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown on top and set in the center.
If desired, sprinkle the reserved cheddar cheese on top during the last 5 minutes of baking for a gooey topping.
Once done, allow the casserole to cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped chives or parsley for freshness, if desired.
