Equipment
- 8- x 8-inch Glass Baking Dish (2-quart)
- Medium Pot (2-quart)

- 1 package cream cheese cubed and at room temperature
- 4 tablespoons butter salted or unsalted
- ⅓ cup milk

- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 bag (18-ounce) frozen sweet corn thawed
- Diced pickled jalapeños to taste (OPTIONAL)
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. In a medium pot set over low heat, melt cream cheese and butter. Stir in milk until mixture is smooth and creamy. Stir in salt, pepper, corn, and (if using) jalapeños.

Notes
An 18 ounce bag of frozen corn is equivalent to approximately 4 cups of corn, once you measure it out. It is recommended to use frozen corn instead of canned for better flavor.
