Pin This RecipeWe have another big weekend of NFL playoff games this weekend. Chicken Legs and I will be parked in our den watching them all and eating this awesome Cracked Out Corn Dip. Corn, sour cream, cream cheese, cheddar, bacon, and ranch. OMG! SO good! We could not stop eating this dip! It just kept calling my name. I ate way too much of this!
This dip can be made ahead of time and refrigerated until you are ready to bake and eat it. I used frozen Silver Queen Corn in the dip because it is my favorite. If you don’t have Silver Queen Corn or don’t like it, just use regular yellow corn kernels. Either way, it will taste great. We served this with some Fritos. It was a winner!
Have you ever added any Franks Buffalo sauce to kick up the heat a bit?
Can you substitute Colby cheese for cheddar?
sure
When I make this, I add a can of black beans and Rotel to it!! Sooooo delicious!!
What can you do with the leftovers? Can it be frozen? How long will it last in fridge?
I think this would be good with a can of beans (drained) added.
Can it be cooked in crockpot
Sure
Would like to bake this in my pellet grill and get some smoke taste. How important is it to cover with foil? Would like to cook it without the foil.
I’m sure it would be fine uncovered
Can this be made in crockpot OR precooked then just heat back up in microwave the next day? We are going camping and I won’t have a oven just microwave so thought I could cook it night before then reheat?
The crockpot or microwave should work fine. Everything is already cooked. You are just heating it up.
This is always a crowd pleaser! I am wondering how adding green onions…thoughts?
sure
Can you prepare this, freeze, then thaw & bake the day of the party?
I think that would be fine
I used 2 bags of frozen Mexican street corn from Trader Joe’s and it took it up a notch! This is a wonderful recipe!
Sounds delicious!
My son in law eats this as a side. I do use canned sweet corn drained. I also add a little extra sugar to make it a touch sweet. I make this on the stove then transfer it to a small crock pot. I am asked several times a year to bring this to parties or my wife takes it work if they do a lunch.
Is it 3 half cups? Or 3 and a half cups for the corn?
since I’m vegetarian, do you think it would still be good without bacon? If not, what do you recommend for a substitution?
You can leave it out or use what you normally use as a bacon substitute
How do you think adding a can of Rotel tomatoes with green chilies would do?
I added jalapeño purée, rotel, and garlic powder, did half mayo and 1/2 sour cream instead of all sour cream. So good!
Can you reheat this the next day if leftoevers?
Sure!
I don't have sour cream can i add a jar of store bought ranch dip instead?
If it is the sour cream ranch dip it should be fine
what else can u use for dippers?
I have fresh corn. Would that change amt. Of ingredients?
It should be the same amount with fresh corn
I made it on the stove top and transferred to a crock pot to take to a party! It’s fantastic!!! I also added some chopped jalapeños!
Thanks so much for the quick response – preparing it now for tomorrow night!
Do I need to thaw frozen corn if I am going to prepare and bake it the next day?
probably not – it will thaw in the fridge before baking
Thoughts on subbing artichoke hearts for the bacon?
Doesn’t sound bad
Can you freeze after using? How long is it good refrigerated after making? Thanks!
I've never frozen the leftovers of this dip. I've made it a couple of days in advance of baking and it is fine.
I think it's wonderful warm and cold! My sister made this for New Year's Day and I didn't even use chips to eat it… yep, just used a fork. And that's how I've been eating the leftovers.
Seriously, this is like crack! No joke in adding that to the title.
SO glad it was a hit!! It is seriously addicting! Making it again for the Super Bowl!
Has anyone made it with canned corn?
That would be fine.
Is this better warm or cold?
I prefer it warm
Can you use canned corn?
I would think that would be fine.
