Frequently Asked Questions

→ Can I use frozen corn instead of canned?: Yes, thaw and drain frozen corn well before using. You'll need about 3.5 cups of corn to equal two 15 oz cans.
→ Is the sugar necessary?: The sugar is optional and depends on your preference. The corn and cream cheese provide natural sweetness already.
→ Can I make this ahead?: Prepare the mixture up to a day ahead and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature and add the cheese before baking.
→ How do I store leftovers?: Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
→ What cheese can I substitute?: Monterey Jack or colby cheese work well in place of cheddar. Use any good melting cheese you prefer.
