Method
 

Instructions
  1. If using fresh corn, cut kernels off the cob. For canned corn, drain and rinse it. If using frozen corn, thaw and drain excess moisture.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, and softened cream cheese. Stir until smooth and well blended.
  3. If your cream cheese is too firm, use this hand mixer to blend it until creamy before folding in the other ingredients.
  4. Stir in the shredded cheddar and pepper jack cheese. Then, mix in garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
  5. Fold in the corn, chopped green onions, diced red bell pepper, and jalapeño. If using cilantro, mix it in at this stage.
