Sweet Corn Tomalito - Just like Chevy's - YUMMM!!!

Anyone go to Chevy's? You know, the Mexican Restaurant? They have this corn stuff that comes with most meals - it's called Sweet Corn Tomalito. It's sooo good, but they only give you like a tablespoon of it, if you're lucky. Well, now you can make it yourself...at home....and eat as much as you like! And, like I promised you....I actually took pictures. Here it is...















Sweet Corn Tomalito

Ingredients:
5 Tbsp. butter, softened
1/4 cup masa (corn flour) (Remember, this is the same stuff you used to make flour tortillas. It's NOT cornmeal - it's corn FLOUR - you can get it at many large supermarkets and any ethnic market).
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
2 cups corn kernels, fresh or frozen, thawed
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. milk

Directions:
1. In a small mixing bowl, mix the butter, masa, and sugar using an electirc mixer until light and fluffy. About 1 minute.
2. In a blender, blend half of the corn kernels with the water until smooth.
3. Combine this mixture with the butter mixture, stirring well.
4. Add the remaining corn kerrnels, corn meal, baking powder, salt and milk and mix well.
5. Pour the corn mixture into an 8 inch square baking pan. tightly cover with foil. Steam by setting atop a medium sauce pan of water on top of the stove. Bring water to a boil and steam corn mixture for 50 minutes to one hour. Keep an eye on the water, you may need to add more. (There are other methods for cooking. Apparently, the "Chevy's Cookbook" says you can preheat oven 250 degree F. Place covered dish in a larger roasting pan filled with so water is 3/4 of inch up side of baking dish. Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. I'm sure you can use a double boiler. That's basically what I did, but since I didn't have a double boiler, I lined the steamer basket of a pot/basket set - see the pictures.)
6. It is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Tomalito should have a smooth, moist texture.
* Note: the pan must be tightly wrapped at all times.
