👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Remove corn kernels from cobs using a sharp knife; discard cobs.
2. Blend the corn kernels with milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt until smooth; the batter should be thick but pourable.
3. Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with a little butter.
4. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each cachapa, spreading it slightly to form a thick disc.
5. Cook for 4-6 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through, flipping carefully with a spatula.
6. Serve the warm cachapas immediately, topped with slices of fresh white cheese, which will slightly melt from the heat.
