What’s the difference between corn casserole and corn pudding?
Corn pudding is slightly more pudding or custard-like composition. But, many people interchange the words.
I’ve always called it corn casserole, specifically Jiffy corn casserole because it uses the famous Jiffy corn muffin mix, but many people like to call is corn pudding.

Good recipe but you never mention the cheddar cheese other than the ingredient list. ???
Alicia says
It’s mentioned in the post, and I’ve added it to the recipe card. You add the cheese after it’s cooked and bake for 5 more minutes, just until the cheese is melted.
