“The masa harina combines with sugar, butter, and cream to create a luscious pudding cake with the consistency of spoon bread. This is a terrific side dish for any Mexican meal. It’s also delicious spooned on top of chili.” ~ AllRecipes.com
I followed the recipe as directed, without any changes. It was perfect! I am so thrilled to finally have this one in my recipe box! I will be making this for more than just Mexican dinners, I plan on making it for our Easter dinner too. This wonderful side dish goes with so many meals.
In the comments section on AllRecipes.com, reviewers stated over and over how this tasted just like the side dish served at Chevys Fresh Mex, El Torito , Chi Chi’s, and other Mexican restaurants – I agree!

Does this need to be refrigerated or will it be good at room temp? I have an fiesta themed event and I would like to have this as an item.
Mary Neumann
Store in the fridge, Krystal. Hope you have fun at your event!

Can you use something dairy free in place of heavy whipping cream? I love love love this stuff but don't eat dairy anymore. Hope there's a substitute.

From what I can tell masa harina is a type of flour.

It is very finely ground corn flour traditionally used for things like tortillas and tamales.
