Slow Cooker Corn and Jalapeno Dip

Simply throw everything in the crockpot for the easiest, most creamiest dip ever. It’s so good, you’ll want to eat it with a spoon!
I think it’s safe to say that I’m a bit obsessed with dip, whether it’s guacamole, spinach and artichoke dip, enchilada dip, queso dip… the list goes on. But when you can make the creamiest of all dips right in your slow cooker – well, that may just be the best dip of all time.
No, but really, you cannot go wrong with a cream cheese based dip with melted pepper jack cheese, salty Parmesan, sweet corn kernels and jalapeños for just a hint of heat. For extra spiciness, feel free to add in more jalapeños to taste. You can even take it one step further and top this baby off with crumbled bacon but either way, you’ll want to eat this dip with a spoon. Who needs chips anyway?

My son LOVES this corn dip mixed with taco meat and then enjoyed with scoops tortilla chips. Quite the yummy dish thanks for the recipe. Sometimes if we are in a hurry, it can also be mixed and melted stovetop.♥️
Is there an easy way to transition from a crock pot to baking? I would love to create this, but don’t have a crockpot!
So easy. Super delicious. Went over very well for a potluck.
If I use frozen corn (thawed and drained) instead of canned, how much should I use? 2 lbs? 3 lbs? Not sure how much of the canned corn is liquid vs corn kernels. Thanks — looks delish!
Use frozen corn, thaw under running water in a colander to cut down on sodium, and precooked crumbled bacon to cut down on dishes 🙂 love this recipe and it’s a staple in my home…kids will eat it alone by the bowlful.
Delicious. Can you make and cook day before , then just warm up?
I made this and it was scrumptious!! I purposely didn’t serve it all so I could have the rest for myself!
loved the dip added cumin next time i will add 4 jalepones needs more heat but east to ake and took it to a tailgate gone!
Best dip EVER!
This was so yummy! I added paprika to the recipe, and didn’t have pepperjack so I substituted monterrey jack and sharp cheddar. Was a huge hit!
Do you ever use fresh corn cut off the cob for this? Would any changes be necessary?
I only have Monterey Jack cheese, not the Pepper Jack. What spices can I add to add in the pepper flavor? Making this as a side for Christmas dinner.
I’ve made this several times for get togethers, and its always is a hit! I add a dash of chili powder, cumin and garlic powder to it. It’s great to using different types of corn, such mexi-corn etc.
So good and so easy to make! I left out the bacon because I was feeling lazy and it was still great. Will definitely make this again in the future.
Yummy dip. I made it except I subbed serranos for jalepenos (there weren’t any fresh at the store) and added a dash of cayenne pepper. I think hot sauce would also be good. I served with chips, crackers, and cut red bell peppers into “chips.”
Great dip!! Hubby loved it!! I do disagree I. Serving right away. If you let it sit it’s thicker and even better to dip I followed the recipe but did sub one can of cream corn.
I made this for a Super Bowl party at work today. Everyone loved it! The only substitution I made was 1 can of creamed corn instead of corn kernels, and I did not use bacon. This is definitely a keeper!
Hi there…would like to take this as an appetizer to a party, but don’t want to bring the crock pot. Do you normally serve in the crock pot…or a serving bowl? Could I quickly heat in the microwave if it were to need re-heating during the party?
You can do any of the above! 🙂
What size Crock Pot did you use?
Edith, you can use a 4-6qt slow cooker.
can this be frozen ? I have a ton of jalapenos and am trying to figure out what to do with them
Freezing sounds like an amazing idea but unfortunately, I cannot answer this with certainty as I have never tried freezing this myself. Please use your best judgment for freezing and reheating.
I have made this three times, and it is delicious. My whole family has asked for the recipe now, they just love it. I always use frozen corn, thawed of course. And I can’t add the bacon, we have a hater in the group, it’s still awesome. I forgot the Jalapeños yesterday, and I have to say I do love the heat it adds, and won’t forget it again. Thanks for a new side dish, it goes with just about anything, burgers and even taco night.
This makes me so happy! 🙂
I just made this and it was great! The only thing I did different was substitute one can of corn for a can of black beans (rinsed & drained)!
Sounds delicious. So happy it turned out great for you!
