Equipment

  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 9x13 inch baking dish
  • 1 spoon or spatula
  • 1 set measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 aluminum foil (optional)

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups frozen corn or 1 can, drained
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions optional
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup crushed cornflakes for topping
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth.
  • Add in the frozen corn, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, chopped green onions (if using), garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  • Transfer the corn mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the crushed cornflakes with the melted butter. Sprinkle the buttered cornflakes evenly over the corn casserole.
  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil (if desired) to prevent over-browning and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
  • Remove from oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
  • For a spicier version, consider adding some diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of cayenne pepper to the corn mixture.
  • This casserole can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator before baking; just ensure to let it come to room temperature before placing it in the oven.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or the oven until warmed through.
