Steps
Prepare all the ingredients. Soften the cream cheese and, if using melted butter, let it cool for a few minutes so it is not too hot when incorporated.
Set aside a small portion of the yellow corn to use as a garnish at the end.
Place the cream cheese, the remaining corn, butter, fresh jalapeño, mayonnaise, chopped pickled jalapeños, and scallions in a bowl.
Add the easy-melting cheese, Botanera hot sauce, paprika, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
Add the crema and mix everything with a spatula or spoon until fully combined and creamy, thick, and suitable for coating tortilla chips.
Taste the sauce and adjust the salt, pepper, or Botanera hot sauce according to your preferred flavor and spice level.
Serve the creamy sauce over the corn tortilla chips, or arrange the chips around the sauce for dipping. Top with the reserved corn and serve immediately.
Notes
The quantities were not specified in the video, so they were estimated for approximately six servings. The creator mentions Lyncott cheese and La Luz tortilla chips. Keep the sauce refrigerated and consume it within 3 to 4 days; store the tortilla chips separately so they retain their texture.
