Spicy Cheesy Corn Casserole

Submitted by Cooking CF

"I love the fresh taste of frozen corn in this rather than most versions that use canned or creamed corm. I combined several recipes to come up with this one using frozen corn. My son-in-law thought it was great and practically ate the whole casserole."

Awesome! One of the best corn casseroles out there. Not heavy like most casseroles. Love the tiny kick from the cayenne pepper. We had it at Thanksgiving and it was a huge hit.
