Cheesy Corn and Macaroni Casserole is a favorite recipe on my husband's side of our family. It’s quite nice for church dinners or family gatherings and is a perfect choice for your next picnic, barbecue, or even a holiday dinner.
Preheat oven to 350℉. Gather the ingredients so that you have everything on the counter or table.
In medium saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter. Add 1 cup whole milk, 14 oz. creamed corn and 14 oz. regular corn (undrained), 10 oz. processed cheese (cubed), 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Cook on low heat and stir until cheese begins to melt.
Stir in 2 cups raw macaroni and continue to cook and stir until cheese is almost or completely melted.
Pour mixture into greased casserole dish and season with an additional 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and if desired, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika. Bake in preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, uncovered. Serve warm. Makes 8-10 servings.
