Description
When I say this dip disappears fast, I mean gone before the chips hit the bowl. Cowboy Corn Dip is bold, creamy, a little spicy, and completely addictive. It’s packed with black beans, crispy bacon, melty cheese, and a kick from fresh jalapeños. Whether you serve it chilled or baked until golden and gooey, one thing’s for sure—this one’s gonna steal the show at your next get-together.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans corn, drained
- 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- ½ cup grated parmesan
- 1 jalapeño, finely diced (seeded for less heat)
- 8 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled
- ½ red onion, diced
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Chopped green onion for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix corn, black beans, mayo, cream cheese, cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan, jalapeño, bacon, red onion, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and combined.
- Top with green onions and chill for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld.

Notes
Serve it with tortilla chips, pita wedges, pretzels, or veggie sticks. To lighten it up, sub in Greek yogurt for mayo. Vegetarian? Skip the bacon or use a plant-based alternative.
