How to make Corn Queso Dip

This baked Corn Queso Dip involves minimal prep work (grilling the corn ahead of time is a time saving tip), for the maximum melty goodness of goat cheese, cheddar cheese, heavy cream, and more.

  1. You can blanch the corn ahead and grill it for a charred flavor (the best).
  2. Boil the corn (7 minutes) and cut off the cob. (Skip the grilling, but you won’t get the charred flavor.)
  3. You can use canned corn (drained), but it’s not quite as good.
