Ingredients
1 bag of Tostitos Scoops tortilla chips
1 cup of cream cheese, softened
1 cup of shredded jalapeño pepperjack cheese
1 cup of corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen and thawed)
1 egg, beaten
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded jalapeño pepperjack cheese, corn kernels, and the beaten egg. Mix everything together until thoroughly combined.
- Arrange the Tostitos Scoops tortilla chips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Spoon a small amount of the cheese and corn mixture into each tortilla chip. Be careful not to overfill.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the chips are slightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let the appetizers cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy while warm!
Notes
- If you prefer less spice, swap out the jalapeño pepperjack cheese for regular cheddar cheese.
- For added flavor, try mixing in some cooked, crumbled bacon or diced grilled chicken.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes.
- You can freeze the uncooked appetizers. Bake from frozen for 15-18 minutes at 350°F.
