This cheesy corn dip with a hint of chipotle has the perfect spicy, smokey addictive flavors! Serve this warm dip with fresh veggies or tortilla chips.

Why this cheesy corn dip?

First of all, this is cheesy and comforting!

Perfect with a few tortilla chips for a tasty appetizer or a filling snack! Next time when you host a party or have people coming over for a game night, this dip is all you need!

Next, the flavors are so addictive. The smokey chipotle and spicy jalapenos are SO good in this dip. Pwerfectly balanced with cream cheese, sour cream, cottage cheese and delicious sweet corn.

The addition of cottage cheese is my favorite part! It adds nutrition and kinda balances the heat from the peppers.

Finally, this dip is so easy to make even at a short notice. Simply mix all the ingredients, bake, and serve. I prefer cooking the onion and garlic for a couple of minutes before adding to the mix. If you prefer to add straight, it works that way too as the dip bakes in the oven for 16-18 minutes and would give a perfect dip. This may be a little spicy since I have both the serranos and jalapenos, as well as cayenne. Adjust the spice level if a milder version is preferable. This is a versatile dip.

This recipe is a keeper. Having said these reasons, is there more to convince you to make this delicious, creamy, cheesy, addictive corn dip?

Ingredients

You will need the following ingredients to make this delicious, cheesy corn dip:

Corn - the sweet corn is the best, use a can for quick and easy recipe. if using frozen, saute for a couple of mionutes with peppers.

Bell pepper - adds flavor and color. You may use either green bell pepper or a mixture of both like in this recipe.

Chipotle peppers, jalapeno, cayenne - These attribute to the perfect balance of smoky heat.

Cheddar cheese - Cheddar chees eworks best in this dip, however you can also substiotiue with Mexican cheese blend.

Cream cheese and sour cream - cream cheese adds proteins and sour cream benefits in balancing the flavors.

Cottage cheese - This adds to the protein and flavor of this dip. This replaces half the quantity of sour cream making the dip have great flavors and more nutrient dense.

Cilantro - boosts aroma and flavor.

Serving Suggestions

Fresh homemade or even store bought tortilla chips are great to serve with this dip. My preferred way is to have with some sweet peppers. I also use naan chips or even slices of bread to have with this delicious dip.

Storage

I store leftovers in the refrigerator for 4-5 days. Pack in an airtight container. When needed I warm these on the oven and serve with chips.

But I use the leftovers of this versatile dip in a few ways, like using it to fortify my grilled cheese or quesedilla or even tacos. Limitless possibilities!

Did I say that you can make this ahead? Yes, assemble everything and refrigerate. Bake in the oven before serving! That's why this easy and flavorful dip is a must for feeding crowds and is a keeper!
