  • 8 ounces grated sharp cheddar cheese

Notes

    • For a spicy corn dip, add chopped jalapeños. You can also purchase a spicy version of Ro-Tel or use Pepper Jack cheese instead of cheddar.
    • To make black bean and corn dip, swap out half of the corn and replace it with a can of rinsed and drained black beans.
    • Make Ahead: the cold corn dip can be enjoyed immediately, but it's even better when prepared in advance. Stir together the dip up to 24 hours ahead of time, cover it, and refrigerate until ready to serve. The flavors come together and it thickens up a bit!
