Elote off the Cob

Elote is a popular street food in Mexico.  I had my first taste in Chicago; the proper way, on the cob.  It was so delicious, but honestly, a little tough to eat without getting it all over my face.  So, I went home and put all the ingredients together in a baking dish.  It is great!  Spicy and cheesy and creamy.  Hope you like it!
