Ingredients

16 ounces frozen whole kernel corn thawed
14.75 ounces canned creamed corn
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
8.5 ounces Jiffy corn muffin mix
2 large eggs beaten
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or a 2-quart casserole dish.
In a large bowl, combine the whole kernel corn, creamed corn, sour cream, melted butter, eggs, and Jiffy corn muffin mix. Stir until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
If you’re adding shredded cheddar cheese for a little extra flavor, fold it into the mixture at this point. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. If you'd like, sprinkle a little extra cheese or paprika on top for a golden finish.
Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set (it should not jiggle when you shake the dish lightly).
Let the corn casserole cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
