INGREDIENTS

two 15-ounce cans canned corn, drained and rinsed (frozen that you thaw and drain is okay or fresh corn that you first cook and cut off the ears is okay)

1/2 cup Mexican crema or sour cream
•
1/2 cup mayonnaise
•
4 cups shredded cheese, divided (I used white cheddar; use your favorite Mexican shredded cheese blend)

1 serrano chile or jalapeno pepper, seeds removed and diced very small; or to taste (serrano is hotter than jalapeno)

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika or paprika
•
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
