Cheddar Corn Cup Bakes004

I especially like to make this recipe for baked corn in individual cups when entertaining as an easy-to-grab buffet option or to serve on the side of the plate when you're filling it up with other yummy dishes like this slow cooker turkey breast with stuffing and good old-fashioned mashed potatoes.

This is an easy to make recipe with not a lot of ingredients required!

It looks pretty and I try to make it special serving it only for holidays or special occasions.
