1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives or green onions
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Optional: 1/2 cup crushed buttery crackers or panko breadcrumbs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, combine the drained whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, sour cream, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, melted butter, chives, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
Pour the corn mixture into a greased 8×8 inch baking dish.
If using, sprinkle the crushed crackers or breadcrumbs evenly over the top.
Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese over the topping.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is heated through and the topping is golden brown and bubbly.
Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For an extra cheesy flavor, you can add 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the corn mixture.
