Tips
- Use full-fat cream cheese and cheddar for the creamiest texture.
- For a slightly sweeter version, add 1–2 tbsp sugar or use a sweet corn muffin mix.
- Can be made ahead and baked just before serving.
If you want, I can also give a “quick skillet version” that cooks faster and still tastes creamy and cheesy.
