Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (8.5 oz) Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
  • 1 can (15 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 can (14.75 oz) cream-style corn
  • 1 block (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a whisk or wooden spoon until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the melted butter and sour cream to the cream cheese and mix until well combined.
  5. Crack the eggs into the bowl and whisk until fully incorporated.
  6. Add the drained whole kernel corn and cream-style corn to the bowl. Stir gently until evenly distributed.
  7. Sprinkle in the sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
  8. Add the Jiffy corn muffin mix and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  9. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Tap the dish gently on the counter to release air bubbles.
  10. Bake for 45-55 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the center is set but slightly jiggly. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  11. If using cheddar cheese, sprinkle it over the top during the last 10 minutes of baking.
  12. Let the casserole cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Notes

For the creamiest texture, ensure cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature. Let the casserole rest for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow it to set. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
