The Method

1
In a mixing bowl, combine the drained corn, mayonnaise, sugar, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.

If adding any optional ingredients (green onions, onions, jalapenos, crab meat etc), mix them in now.
3
Lightly grease the bottom of your hot pot with the butter.
4
Pour the corn mixture into the prepared hot pot.
5
Top the corn mixture generously with the shredded mozzarella cheese, spreading evenly.
6
Turn on the hot pot to medium heat. Cover the pot and let it cook until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 15-20 minutes.
7
Once the cheese is fully melted and slightly browned, carefully remove from heat (if using a portable burner). Let cool slightly before serving directly from the hot pot.

Chef's Tips

Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking, depending on how sweet you prefer your corn cheese.

For a richer flavor, use a combination of mozzarella and cheddar cheese.

Keep an eye on the hot pot to prevent the cheese from burning.

Serve with tortilla chips, baguette slices, or enjoy it on its own.

For a smoky flavor, broil the finished corn cheese for a minute or two, watching closely to prevent burning.
