(by Shirley McNevich)

1 - 7.5oz. package Cope's dried sweet corn
3 1/2 cups cold milk
3 TBSP white sugar
3 1/2 TBSP butter (melted)
1 tsp. salt
4 eggs

In a blender add the dried sweet corn--set blender on "grind" and run on high until corn is ground. Grease a 2qt. microwaveable glass casserole dish. Pour the ground corn into the greased casserole dish. Add the milk, white sugar, salt and melted butter--stir. In a blender add the four eggs--blend on high for 20 seconds. Pour the eggs into the corn mixture--stir. Cover the top of the dish with wax paper--microwave on high for 12 minutes. Remove from microwave, stir, return to microwave (covered with wax paper again) and cook on high for 10-15 minutes longer (watch closely when making this the first time because microwave powers differ greatly).
