Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1 can whole kernel corn drained, 14-15 ounces
  • 1 can cream style corn 14-15 ounces
  • 2 eggs slightly beaten
  • 1 stick butter melted
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 package 8 1/2 ounces, Jiffy Corn Muffin mix
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar shredded cheese

Equipment

  • 1 9x13 Inch Baking Dish Or similar size, for a casserole serving 14
  • 1 Large Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Small Microwave-Safe Bowl or Saucepan For melting butter
  • 1 Rubber Spatula For gentle mixing and scraping

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. Melt the stick of butter in a small microwave-safe bowl or saucepan and set aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a separate small bowl, slightly beat the two eggs.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled melted butter, beaten eggs, and sour cream, mixing until smooth.
  5. Stir in the drained whole kernel corn and the can of cream-style corn into the wet mixture.
  6. Add the Jiffy Corn Muffin mix and the shredded sharp cheddar cheese to the bowl.
  7. Mix gently with a rubber spatula until all ingredients are just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  8. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out if necessary.
  9. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown and set in the center.
  10. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow it to firm up slightly.

Notes

For optimal texture, ensure all refrigerated ingredients like eggs and sour cream are at room temperature before mixing. This promotes a smoother, more evenly baked pudding. When incorporating the Jiffy Corn Muffin mix, mix just until combined; overmixing can develop the gluten and result in a tougher, less tender casserole. For an enhanced flavor profile, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of cayenne pepper for a subtle warmth. A sprinkle of fresh chives or chopped cilantro just before serving will also elevate the presentation and add a fresh counterpoint to the richness. Always check for doneness by inserting a knife or toothpick into the center; it should come out clean. If the top browns too quickly, you can loosely tent it with foil.
