Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained whole kernel corn and the can of cream-style corn. Stir them together until well incorporated.
Step 3: Add the sour cream to the corn mixture. Stir gently until it’s evenly distributed.
Step 4: Sprinkle in the Jiffy corn muffin mix. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Step 5: Pour in the melted butter. Fold it into the mixture until fully incorporated.
Step 6: Stir in 1 3/4 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese, reserving 1/4 cup for topping if desired.
Step 7: Pour the entire mixture into your prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 9: Once baked, remove the corn casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows it to set up slightly for easier serving.
