CHEVY'S SWEET CORN TAMALITOS
I started seeing this delightful little scoop of heaven on the edge of my plate at a few of the Mexican restaurants around town, so I decided make it at home. This recipe is actually the recipe they use at Chevy's, which I found published in the local paper.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, mix the margarine, masa and sugar with mixer until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
- Blend 1/2 the corn kernels with the water in a blender until smooth.
- Combine with margarine mixture, stirring well.
- Add the remaining corn, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and milk.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil.
- Pour the mixture into an 8-inch baking dish.
- Tightly cover with plastic wrap and set atop the saucepan of boiling water.
- Keep pan tightly wrapped and steam for 50 minutes to 1 hour.
- Check water level often, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- I have also made this in the oven, setting the pan in a water bath.
- I do not know the temp I had the oven on, or how long I kept it inches If anyone tries it, please add that info.

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly and my tamalitos turned out terrible. The masa was too dry and the corn mixture was bland.

[email protected]These tamalitos were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

[email protected]These tamalitos were so easy to make and they turned out so delicious! I used fresh corn from my garden and it really made a difference in the flavor. I will definitely be making these again and again.

[email protected]I made these tamalitos last night and they were a hit! The corn mixture was sweet and flavorful, and the masa was soft and fluffy. I especially loved the addition of the cotija cheese, which gave them a nice salty tang. I will definitely be making th
