Pastel de elote ('corn-on-the-cob cake')

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
5Cobs of sweet corn
100gramsButter
100gramsCream cheese
5Eggs
Cinnamon or vanilla

Directions

Put everything in the blender and combine well, but not to a perfectly smooth puree, there should be little chunks of corn discernible. Pour into a greased tin and bake for 1 hour in a medium oven. Serve with warmed syrup poured over it. This is light, yet substantial, and has a unique flavour. The syrup can be flavoured with cinnamon or vanilla too. The corn should be the sweetest and freshest available, since the recipe contains no additional sugar or starch other than what the corn provides.
