This Out-of-this-World Corn Dip (also know as Crack Corn Dip) is a crowd pleasing appetizer that has become my go-to party recipe. It’s easy to make and will always great rave reviews!
Out-of-this-World Corn Dip:
Greetings all! I hope you had a fab Fourth of July. I know I did.
Though, I must admit having a holiday mid-week always screws me up. Not only do I have no idea what day it is, my productivity schedule is completely out of whack. Anyone else?
Yesterday I whipped up an impromptu dip for a little swimming nosh at my Dad’s house. I hadn’t made this dip in over five years and honestly forgot how delicious it really is. And, you know me, it’s super simple to put together an it makes a ginormous amount of dip.

I actually found this recipe via a Gooseberry Patch cookbook my mom gave me years ago when I first moved to Philadelphia after college.
However, after a quick google search found it all over the net. Some even call it Crack Corn Dip! (That’s what my family calls it now because they love it so much!) But, for the purpose of this post, I give all the credit to Gooseberry Patch’s Coming Home with Gooseberry Patch.
How to make Crack Corn Dip:
This Corn Dip Recipe is so easy to make:
- Just toss all the ingredients in a bowl.
- Stir to evenly combine
- Refrigerate until your ready to serve.
That’s it!
Recipe Notes:
I couldn’t find the corn with diced peppers, so I just used plain sweet corn and added in 1/4 cup of chopped roasted red peppers. Fabulous!
Also, take the time to make sure everything is drained really, really well. This dip can get runny if you don’t. Also the longer it sets, the more the cheese soaks up any liquids.

Trust me, this Out-of-this-World Corn Dip (Crack Corn Dip) is edible gold!
It’s has a small kick (use less jalapeños if you don’t want it as spicy), but I love that. So fab!

Thanks so much for sharing this recipe, Michael…it’s definitely one of our favorites. No matter what you call it, it’s always a party favorite and even though it makes enough to serve a crowd, we always seem to take home an empty bowl! 🙂
Thanks again for sharing and linking…we appreciate it!
I’ll bet this would be considered a meal if I added chopped,shredded chicken.
I’v made this too. My son got it off of his teacher. Christmas we use Red & green Peppers. It’s always a hit !!
I love dip. Yours seems very tasty
This dip is much better served warm when the cheese is melted! I use a small crock pot and set it to high to melt everything, then once melted keep it on warm.
I was wondering about fresh corn from the cob as well.. Wonder if I should blanch it in boiling water first.
Hi Michael, I recently discovered your blog and love it. We made this delicious dip for a party on the weekend, and everyone loved it. I posted all the details, http://www.lifeisaparty.ca/2012/pretty-30th-birthday-dinner/
Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I not only think this dish looks yummy it is. I took it to a Church social and everyone asked for the recipe. Your not kidding it is ediable gold. Couldn’t quit eating it. Very easy to make. The only thing I would do differently is use a corn chip that was less salty.
This looks amazing. Great timing with corning showing up in Farmer’s Markets now. Love the Fritos for dipping, too. That’s such a throwback to my childhood–favorite snack back in the day.
I was craving fritos today, and lo and behold I find Michael’s blog on this dip, it will make me insane until I make it and embibe!
Thanks for sharing the recipe, it looks delicious!

This looks delicious! I am all about dips and this recipe sounds great. Thanks for sharing 🙂
This was INCREDIBLE!! I got so many compliments, and then I used the leftovers for a burrito with ground hamburger, shredded cheese and salsa. SO GOOD!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I’ve been looking for this recipe….I had something just like this several years ago (without the jalapeño papers) and have been searching for the recipe! They lady that brought it to my sons end of season soccer party called it a dump dip…and rattled off what was in it, but i couldn’t ever remember. I’m so excited!
Great recipe, Michael!! Looks so good!
Perfect dip for summer! Pinning it now!
Hey buddy!! and all! has anyone tried this warm? that’s sort of what I was thinking too!
Is there a substitute for the mayo? I am not a big mayo fan and I am trying to stay from that much fat.
miracle whip? vegan mayo? avacado mayo? maybe some type of cheese in a jar?
