WARNING: This dip looks disgusting, hence the name. However, it’s so good that you will likely need to double or triple the recipe. Trust me.
I have my cousin to thank for this great tailgate must-have. I first tasted this dip at a party we had at my parent’s house to cheer on the Cleveland Browns. They lost (surprise, surprise- I grew up in Ohio so we’re used to that) but this dip is a winner. It looks pretty ugly when you make it but it tastes so good!
Mix all 4 ingredients in a small crock pot and melt down to a creamy consistency. Serve with tortilla chips.
-1 block of cream cheese (regular, not low fat)
-1/2 stick butter
-1 can of corn, drained
-2 tsp. diced jalapenos
You can add more peppers for intense heat or skip it altogether for zero heat. Two tsp. will give it just enough of a flavor boost without being hot. Even the kids loved it with the 2 tsp. of jalapenos so I would suggest keeping them in for flavor’s sake.
I’ve never met anyone who makes this dip and regrets that decision. The problem always becomes: I didn’t make enough.

Laura McKenna grew up in Ohio and got her first job in radio in La Crosse in 2005. She packed up her stuff, made the move, and has been in Wisconsin ever since! Her favorite season is winter but she loves to spend all summer in her vegetable garden. When she isn't in her pink kitchen cooking up vegetarian recipes, more than likely she's taking bubble baths, reading mystery novels (sometimes while in a bubble bath), cheering for THEE Ohio State Buckeyes, or officiating weddings! She married her best friend from college last year but they still don't live in the same house yet. Laura's favorite way to spend a Friday night is watching Dateline with her cat (Phil Dawson) on her lap. She's thrilled to be back keeping you company during the workday on 105-7 CFW!
