Out-of-this-World Corn Dip
This post may contain affiliate links. Thank you for supporting the brands that keep me creative in my tiny kitchen!
Last year, some friends hosted an Oktoberfest party and one of the things that I liked most (other than the fabulous assortment of beer, obviously) was a corn dip that someone brought. I was told that it was key to eat it with Fritos.
Dipping corn chips in corn dip – that’s something I can totally get on board with. I am originally from Indiana, after all.
This dip is a cinch to put together, and it’s always a big hit. I eased off of the jalapeños when I made it because I was bringing it to a potluck for parents and toddlers. I didn’t want to be remembered as The Lady Who Burnt Poor Little Timmy’s Mouth.
Next time, I’m going full-on-spicy.
It’s hard to explain how addictive this dip is – it’s definitely more than the sum of its parts. Bring this to your next potluck or picnic and it’s guaranteed to disappear!

That does look out-of-this-world indeed! I can just imagine how awesome it would be with a bunch of jalapeno 🙂

I made this for our 4th of July party, and it was amazing! I used plenty pickled jalapeños and their juice. I found, when eating leftovers, that slightly heating it made it even better!

So glad you enjoyed this! I’m swooning thinking of having this warmed up a bit – YUM!
