Elote Casserole (Mexican Street Corn Casserole)
6 c. frozen corn
3 tbsp unsalted butter
2/3 c. mayo
Juice of 1 lime
3/4 tsp Smoked Paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1 clove garlic, minced
Fresh Jalapeño, diced (if desired and to taste, I did about 1 tbsp- remove the seeds and pith carefully to decrease the heat)
1/4 c. Fresh parsley, chopped
3/4 c. Oaxaca cheese, shredded, divided

1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add butter. Once melted, add in frozen corn. Cook corn, stirring occasionally until it starts to brown a little.
2. Add mayo, lime juice, smoked paprika, salt, garlic, and jalapeno. Stir and cook about 2 minutes.
3. Add in parsley and about 1/2 c. cheese. Stir to combine.
4. Pour into casserole dish and top with remaining cheese. You can cool and then place in refrigerator, or immediately bake. (Great for making the day ahead)
5. Preheat oven to 350F. Bake for 10-12 minutes if straight from skillet, or 20 minutes if from fridge. Broil for 1-2 minutes if you like a little crispy to the top. Enjoy!

The layers on this cheesecake pie = actual magic 💫 🍓 🫐
�From the golden crust to the creamy middle and gooey, jammy berry topping, every bite is a dream. This cheesecake pie is THAT dessert—the one everyone asks you to make again. The berry topping melts into the cheesecake layer for a bite that’s rich, bright, and unforgettable.

And the best part? You can make it ahead and chill until you’re ready to serve—no stress, just compliments.

And if you’re planning your Mother’s Day menu? This pie needs a spot at the table. 🥧

1 c. Granulated sugar

4. Scrape down bowl again and add the rest of the ingredients and beat until just combined.
5. Lightly flour the counter and roll the dough out until about 1/8”thick. Using a 2 1/2” rough cookie cutter cut out cookies. And then transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet. Collect the scraps of the dough and roll out again and repeat the cutting process until there isn’t enough dough.
6. Use a smaller cookie cutter (of choice that fits inside the circle) to cut out a shape in half of the cookies (for the top). If you want to use coarse sugar to decorate, this is where you sprinkle it on the tops of the cookies.
7. Place cut outs on baking sheets and then place in freezer for about 10 minutes while oven is preheating.
8. Preheat oven to 350F. Once preheated, bake cookies for 8-9 minutes.
9. Allow cookies to cool completely and then spread the full cookie with some jam and then top with the cookie with the hole in it.
10. Enjoy!
