🌽 How to Know When Corn Casserole Is Done
The edges should be golden and pulling away from the dish, and the center should be set with just a slight jiggle. A knife in the middle should come out mostly clean. Let it rest 10 minutes before serving so it firms up and slices neatly.
🍽️ Doubling for a Crowd
Every recipe here uses one 8.5 oz box of Jiffy and fits an 8×8 or 2-quart dish. To feed 10 to 12 people, double everything and bake in a 9×13 pan, adding 10 to 15 minutes to the bake time. Most of these can be stirred together the night before and baked straight from the fridge.
