This street food treasure is elevated with a creamy embrace of mayonnaise, a sprinkle of cotija cheese that crumbles like velvet, and a whisper of lime juice that awakens every flavor.
To crown it all, a dash of chili powder (or Tajín for a citrusy kick) adds a fiery contrast, while fresh cilantro leaves dance on top, offering a final touch of fragrance — it’s an indulgent experience, a bite of Mexican tradition that feels like sunshine in every spoonful. 🌞✨

Fresh corn kernels (off the cob or frozen)
Butter (for that rich sauté)
