Mexican Corn Cake Pudding recipe for Christie and everyone else too

[Guest guest]

This is a good recipe to share here. Not like the normal high cake you frost.

This is made using masa harina, it's kind of a corn pudding cake with spicy

flavors. Serve warm or room temperature.

 

Mexican Corn Cake Pudding

 

1/4 cup butter or margarine

2 tbls. vegetable shortening

1/2 cup masa harina

5 to 6 tbls. cold water

10 oz. frozen corn thawed or canned corn, drained

3 tbls. corn meal

1/4 cup sugar (little less is fine)

3 tbls. cream or a thick rich brand of soy milk

1/4 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

dash of cumin

1 to 2 tbls. chopped mild canned green chiles

 

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease an 8X10-inch or a 9X9-inch

square baking pan.

Beat butter and shortening in a mixing bowl until well blended and creamy.

Beat in masa harina until mixed.

Add water as you beat until dough resembles a cookie dough mix.

Blend in corn kernels.

In a separate bowl mix together cornmeal, sugar, cream, baking powder, salt,

cumin and green chiles.

Add masa harina mixture and blend well.

Pour mixture into prepared pan.

Cover pan with foil and bake for 40 to 50 minutes until the mixture is the

consistency of a custard.

Remove from oven and cool for 15 minutes.

Serve with an ice cream scoop or cut into squares.

Oh yum! I had something like this at an El Torito or Chevy's or one

of those type places.

Mmmm this sounds great, Zena, thank you. I love this group - you just

mention an ingredient and someone comes up with a recipe straight

away. I shall head off to the supermarket in the morning to get a jar

of chillies - would green jalapenos do? The only ones they stock here

are green or red jalapenos but I have no idea how hot they are. Would

you eat this cake pudding on its own, or with something?
