Slow Cooker Corn and Cheese Dip

Sweet, creamy and cheesy. My corn and pepper in the slow cooker Dip delivers a delicious bite of fresh corn and peppers in every spoonful. While it’s perfect for dipping, this versatile three-cheese dip goes way beyond the bowl: toss it with cooked pasta, pour it over chicken breasts, drizzle it over hot dogs, or spoon it over crispy fries.

Ingredients

• Evaporated milk
• Cream cheese
• Cheddar cheese
• Mozzarella cheese
• But
• Oil
• Mini sweet peppers

This Slow Cooker Corn Dip is one of the most delicious ways to use seasonal corn and peppers – because who doesn’t love a cheesy dip on game day or for big game? Don’t worry if corn isn’t in season; thawed frozen corn or canned corn work just as well.

How it’s done

The corn and peppers are quickly sautéed until lightly browned while the cheese melts in the slow cooker. Once the vegetables are browned, they are added to the melted cheese. This step brings out their natural sweetness and adds extra depth of flavor to the dip.

Why use condensed milk?

Evaporated milk is a concentrated form of milk that adds extra creaminess to recipes. Regular milk can also be used.

Cheeses

You can use any of your favorite cheeses. I chose white cheeses to keep the dip pale in color, allowing the corn and peppers to really pop. Pepper Jack, Monterey Jack, Gruyère and Fontina are all excellent melting cheeses.

What cheeses to use

You can use any of your favorite cheeses. I chose to stick with white cheeses because I wanted the dip to be light in color to offset the colors of the corn and peppers. Pepper Jack, Monterey, Gruyère, Fontina are all good melting cheeses.

Seasonal Sweet Corn

You can use it canned, frozen or fresh depending on the season. Simply cook the corn on the cob and cut the kernels.

Optional additions

• Jalapeno for a spicy bite.
• Sour cream if you want to add a little spice.

Portion

Serve the dip straight from the slow cooker/slow cooker to keep it warm, perfectly melted and smooth. Mini slow cookers work particularly well for this.

Top it with tortilla chips or nachos, serve it with crusty bread, drizzle it on hot dogs, or top it with crispy fries.
