Beat the cream cheese. Add the softened cream cheese to a large bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer until smooth.

Drain the salsa. Add your salsa to a fine mesh strainer set over a small bowl, stirring it gently with a spoon so the liquid collects below, leaving the tomatoes and other ingredients in the strainer. Measure out ⅔ cup of the drained salsa (or use 1 can of drained Rotel tomatoes). Set aside.

Add the remaining ingredients. Add in the sour cream, ranch seasoning, taco seasoning, drained salsa (or Rotel), and green chilies. Mix until smooth and combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Finally, add the corn kernels and shredded cheese. Fold them in gently using a rubber spatula.

Chill and serve. Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving for the best results. Dip can be served right away if desired, but it’s best when served after it has chilled.

Serve with tortilla chips, pita chips, corn dippers, or pretzels.
