This was really good! It went perfectly with chili and was very easy (I cheated and used my stick blender to chop the corn in with the butter, etc.). I also used all cornmeal as my grocery store only had a large bag of masa. I did cut back on the sugar a bit (and next time will add more a little more salt). Thank you for a keeper!
