Time 3h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

¼ pound margarine
¼ cup white sugar
3 eggs
1 (8 ounce) container reduced-fat sour cream
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ tablespoon ground cloves
1 (8.5 ounce) package dry corn muffin mix
¼ cup milk
1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
1 (15.25 ounce) can sweet corn, drained

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
  • Beat the margarine and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Beat in the sour cream, vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves. Pour in the corn muffin mix alternately with the milk, mixing until just incorporated. Fold in the cream-style corn and sweet corn; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

CRAZY SZECHUAN BEEF AND MESSY CORN WITH SHISHITO



Crazy Szechuan Beef and Messy Corn with Shishito image

This corn dish is a fun side that uses many of the same ingredients as the beef recipe. From summer through fall, make this with corn on the cob; but in the winter, substitute 4 cups of frozen fire-roasted corn kernels. Simple white rice is great with both dishes.

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 ears of corn (shucked)
mayonnaise
Cajun spice

  • 3. Keep rotating the corn until fully cooked. (Time varies for each grill.)

  • 5. Repeat for each ear of corn. Delicious!!

CRAZY CORN! (CHEESY CARAMEL POPCORN)



Crazy Corn! (Cheesy Caramel Popcorn) image

This is delicious! Was afraid to try it for the first time. No way did I think cheesy caramel popcorn sounded even remotely good, but boy oh boy was I wrong.

Provided by Melissa Turner

Categories     Popcorn

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

15 c favorite brand of cheese popcorn
1 1/2 c dark brown sugar (packed)
12 Tbsp butter (sliced) plus some to coat baking pan
1/4 c plus 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp baking soda

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the oven to 250°F. Coat a large roasting pan with some butter and place the popcorn in the pan. Set aside.
  • 2. Place the brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, and salt in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula until the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Continue to boil without stirring for 3 minutes. Remove from heat, add the vanilla and baking soda, and whisk until the caramel is light in color, foamy, and has doubled in volume, about 10 seconds.
  • 3. Immediately drizzle over the popcorn, stir with a rubber spatula until thoroughly coated, and spread into an even layer.
  • 4. Bake, stirring every 15 minutes with a rubber spatula and scraping up any caramel from the bottom of the pan, until a cooled piece of popcorn is very crunchy, about 45 minutes to 1 hour total. (To test for doneness, take a few pieces of popcorn out of the oven and let cool for 30 seconds. If they're crunchy, then the caramel corn is done.)
  • 5. Transfer the caramel corn to a work surface or rimmed baking sheet to cool completely (it will crisp as it cools).
  • 6. If you want to make your own cheese popcorn. Just pop your popcorn, coat with some butter and toss. Then coat with dry cheese sauce mix (such as the cheese packets you get in your kids kraft macaroni and cheese) and toss again.
