Mexican Sweet Corn Cake image

I love Mexican Food! This is a tasty little side dish served at restaurants such as Chi Chi's, El Torito, and Chevy's Fresh Mex. This is more like a corn pudding, but I have known others to fry the dough into a pancake. Masa Harina, one of the ingredients, means corn flour. I have found it at major grocery chains or you can find it at a store that specializes in Hispanic foods. I could eat this for breakfast, lunch , and dinner.

This cake is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can use fresh or frozen corn, depending on what I have on hand.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cake turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. I think I'll try making it again with less sugar next time.

I'm not usually a fan of cornbread, but this cake changed my mind. It was so moist and flavorful, and the corn gave it a nice sweetness.

This is the best sweet corn cake I've ever had! It's so easy to make and it always turns out perfect. I love serving it with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chili powder.
