Rave Reviews Corn Soufflé

I'm running pretty behind this holilday season--lots of wrapping to do (AND shopping still to do!), and a stocking to make, and an early, full-swing Christmas gathering --What?! Move Christmas UP?! How 'bout BACK?!

But my recipe for corn soufflé is SO EASY and SO DELICIOUS that I simply have to share it with you so you can use it for your holiday gatherings. This is a foolproof recipe, and I don’t think I’ve ever served it/taken it to a party where I wasn’t asked for the recipe.

It's this easy--these are all the ingredients!

You can bake it in the dish where you will serve it, to make it even easier

if you're transporting it, or bake it and transfer the

soufflé to a prettier serving dish when it's done.

Spray the dish with non-stick spray.

Mix them all in your baking dish, bake, and you're good to go.

I've made it in a deep bowl, and I've made it in a large, 3" deep dish, depending

on the quantity.

This recipe can easily be doubled, tripled, and quadrupled.

The bowl in the pictures is the liner of an old crock pot.

It almost held a tripled recipe.

Oven: 375^o

Bake for 45 minutes to one hour, until the top is a lovely light golden brown.

Ingredients:

1 box Jiffy Corn Mix

1 egg, slightly beaten

1 stick softened butter, add in slices

1 can whole-kernel corn, drained

1 can creamed corn

8 oz sour cream

2 tbsp sugar (can be adjusted)

Optional: Chopped fresh or canned jalapeño to taste (I use 1 for a single recipe)

About halfway through baking time stir to fully distribute the sour cream and butter.

Ready to go in the oven!

The small one with jalapeño, the large without.

I made a triple recipe here, and scooped some out into the small bowl, then added the jalapeño.

Done!

Nice and lightly browned.

Ready to transport in my Longaberger basket to our family's Thanksgiving gathering.

Ready to go!

This is how the smaller one went to the party~

In the small Longaberger mixing bowl and in a smaller Longaberger basket.

Since the mixing bowl has no lid, I inverted this pretty little dish that came in a box full of stuff

from an auction—it was my big, pleasant surprise! I LOVE this little dish!

Tied it with a fall ribbon to keep the "lid" in place, and it was ready to go too!

I LOVE my Longaberger baskets for transporting food to parties! The women in our family know that when we take something we take everything--the serving bowls, serving utensils, etc.--so the hostess doesn't have to scramble to look for these things when we arrive.
Do you have Longaberger baskets? How do you use them?

¡Buen provecho! (bon appétit in Spanish, which is what we say at our house before every meal.)
