Crack Corn Dip is creamy, cheesy, and loaded with bold flavor! Sweet corn and a custom spice blend give it a fun twist, making it the ultimate scoopable snack for summer hangouts.
Why This Dip Disappears Fast
- No Ranch Packet Needed: I decided to skip the ranch packet and add my own spices like chili powder to give it a kick that really makes it pop.
- Make-Ahead Friendly: If you want a stress-free prep, go ahead and make this the day before. That extra chill time lets the flavors meld
- Pairs with Anything: Serve it with tortilla chips, crackers, veggies, corn chips, or even as a taco topping. It’s the perfect girl dinner.
Ingredients for Crack Corn Dip
- Corn: I used southwest-style canned corn for this recipe, but you can use Mexican or fiesta-style corn. Whatever you can find and prefer.
- Drain the Veggies: Because canned veggies hold extra liquid, be sure to drain them well. Otherwise, you’ll end up with a soggy dip.
- Protein Boost: If you want a slightly healthier option, substitute the sour cream for plain Greek yogurt for added protein.
How to Make Crack Corn Dip
You don’t need much to make this addictively good corn dip recipe, just one bowl, a handful of ingredients, and a few quick minutes. Let’s make it!
- Add Ingredients: Add the drained southwest-style corn, drained fire-roasted diced tomatoes, drained diced jalapeños, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and sliced green onions to a large bowl.
- Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, pepper, and chili powder until smooth.
- Combine and Serve: Mix the dressing mixture with the vegetables and then stir well to combine. Serve immediately or, if you have time, store it in the fridge for a few hours to let the flavors blend.
