Turn off the grill and set the grilled corn aside to cool.

In a food processor, add chopped cilantro, grape tomatoes, red onion, and garlic.

Squeeze in the avocado and lime juice, then season with salt, pepper, and a dash of cumin.

Pulse the mixture in the food processor until consistent.

In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup sour cream and 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, adding cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to taste.

Squeeze in the remaining lime juice and blend the mixture with a fork.

Cut the kernels off the grilled corn and set aside.

In a shallow dish, spread the guacamole mixture evenly, followed by the sour cream mixture.

Top with the grilled corn kernels and sprinkle with cotija cheese.

Serve with tortilla chips.
