I am all about a good dip. In my opinion, they are the perfect party food. Whether it’s a birthday party, a sporting event, a holiday – you need a good dip for them all. Whether you are dipping with chips or veggies or fruit – yep, I love them all.
So every summer, this Corn Dip Recipe is a must make for me. I had to squeeze it in one more time this summer when I had some extra fresh corn. And my family gobbled it up in no time flat!
How to Grill Corn
This recipe is best with fresh grilled corn. If you want to make this year round, you can use frozen corn, but I always like it best with grilled corn. So here is how I grill corn for this recipe.
- Heat your grill to medium heat. I like to let it heat up for 5-10 minutes to make sure it is hot.
- Shuck the corn and clean off all of the silk.
- When the grill is hot, place the corn on the grill.
- Grill for about 10 minutes, turning a few times to cook it evenly. You don’t want to overcook the corn, as it won’t be as juicy.
- Let the corn cool before cutting the kernels from the cob.
Ingredients in The Corn Dip Recipe
Here are the other ingredients you’ll need for this recipe:
The grilled corn, cut off of the cob
Mayonnaise
Sour cream
A mix of cheese – I like cheddar and pepper jack
Chopped green chiles – I use a can, unless I happen to have fresh chiles on hand
Green Onions
Cumin
How to Make This Fresh Corn Dip
The only real work you have for this recipe is grilling the corn. This is a really easy recipe!
- Stir together the mayonnaise and sour cream. Add in the cheese, green chiles, green onions and cumin and stir to combine.
- Add in the cooled corn that has been cut from the cob.
- Taste and season with salt as needed. Don’t go too crazy, as most chips are quite salty.
- Refrigerate the dip until needed. It can be served straight from the refrigerator.

What a great post! I would never have thought that you would think your blog was not good enough…I LOVE your blog!!!! Everything is so professionally done but what I love most is that you find time to visit little blogs like mine whose pictures really aren’t very good. I always feel really touched when you leave a comment. Actually I was just telling my husband about your blog last week that I”m always amazed that a blog as good as yours finds time to visit mine and leave a comment..Thank you!
By the way this dip looks awesome..can’t wait to give it a try!
Deborah says
@Asiya, I’ve always thougth it was important to return the comment love. I know things sometimes get busy and I get impossibly behind, but I think having that relationship with readers is one of the things that makes this all so wonderful! Thank you for your comments, as well. I treasure and am grateful for every comment I get!

I’m glad you’re out of your blogging funk – it wasn’t until after BlogHer here in Seattle that I was able to walk away revitalized and inspired again. Keep up the fabulous work – there are plenty of us rooting for you and adoring everything you do!
Deborah says
@Megan {Country Cleaver}, thank you so much – it always feels good to be inspired. Now I just have to always remember these lessons that I learned!! 🙂

Also, this dip is seriously calling my name. I cannot get enough of fresh corn this summer!

Colleen @ What's Baking in the Barbershop?! says
I love this post! What a great message. I don’t have a fancy or popular blog, and some days I get discouraged because I don’t have a lot of readers. But I can’t compare myself to the super popular bloggers out there – I need to remember that this is just a side hobby, and I blog to share my love of baking with others and hopefully I make people smile and encourage some people to get in the kitchen. Thanks for that reminder!!
And p.s. I would LOVE some of this dip – like a whole bowl full. 😉
Deborah says
@Colleen @ What’s Baking in the Barbershop?!, please don’t get discouraged! I love what you do, and I admire anyone who is a food blogger strictly for hobby – it is a lot of work! Thank you for sharing your love of baking with me!
Colleen @ What's Baking in the Barbershop?! says
@Deborah, Awww, thanks! That is very sweet of you.
Rosa says
A fantastic event and delicious dip!
Cheers,
Rosa
Deborah says
@Rosa, I really couldn’t get enough of the dip!
