Made with whole-kernel white corn, cream cheese, red pepper, and green chiles, this slightly spicy shoepeg corn casserole is rich and creamy crowd pleaser.

Ingredients

6 oz. cream cheese, softened
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) butter, softened
2 12 oz. cans whole-kernel shoepeg corn (or whole-kernel white)
1 4 oz. can chopped green chiles with juice
1/2 cup finely diced red pepper
1 1/2 cups Ritz cracker crumbs (about 1 sleeve)

Instructions

Combine cream cheese and butter; mix with corn, chiles, and red pepper. Place in a 8″ square pan (no exceptions – if you use a different size the consistency will be wrong), top with the Ritz cracker crumbs, and bake at 350° until bubbly, about 15 minutes.
