Tips

You will need about 1 medium corncob to give the ½ cup kernels required in this recipe. Remove husk and cut kernels from cob. You can substitute ½ cup frozen corn kernels, if preferred.
Cheesy Corn Bites will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 days. Eat cold, or warm in a microwave oven just before serving.
These tasty morsels are also great served as a side to soup.
