CACHAPAS (VENEZUELAN CORN PANCAKES)
These sweet corn pancakes are a breakfast staple in Venezuela. You can have them with just butter, but they're amazing sandwiched with some soft, melty cheese between two of them. Think: elote meets breakfast. Cachapas are very delicate, so be sure to flatten the center of the pancake when you scoop the batter into the pan. You'll be on your way to a slightly charred, salty and sweet breakfast treat.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Add the crema, half of the corn, eggs, sugar and salt to a blender and blend until the mixture is evenly combined but still chunky. Add the arepa flour and the remaining corn, then blend until a thick, even batter forms with pieces of corn still visible. Let the batter sit a couple of minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet or a griddle over medium heat until warm and spray generously with cooking spray. Add two 1/4-cup scoops of the batter, spacing them apart, to form 2 pancakes. Smooth each out with the back of your measuring cup to form a 5-inch-wide pancake, making sure the center is thin and flat -- the center takes longer to cook and if mounded will make the pancake much harder to flip. Cook until the bottoms are dark brown, almost black, about 5 minutes. While the pancakes cook, shred or slice your cheese, if necessary.
- Flip the pancakes and top one of them with a quarter of the cheese. Cook until the cheese melts, about 3 minutes, then top the cheese with the second pancake. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven.
- Make more cachapas with the remaining batter and cheese, wiping out the previous oil and spraying the skillet or griddle generously with cooking spray for each batch. Once all of the cachapas are filled with cheese, top each with a half tablespoon of butter and serve with crema on the side, for dipping.
CACHAPAS: VENEZUELAN CORN CAKE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Place the corn, cream, salt, melted butter, and cornstarch (if using) in a food processor or blender. Process until you have a fairly smooth, thick batter.
- Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium-low heat.
- Add about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the batter to a skillet. Spread it with a spatula to make a circle.
- Cook the pancake until it starts to bubble and the spatula can easily slide underneath it.
- Flip the pancake and cook for several minutes on the other side. Keep the temperature on the low side, or the outside of the pancakes will burn before the inside is completely cooked.
- Continue cooking pancakes until you have used all the batter.
- Spread the pancakes with butter and cream cheese or top with grated queso fresco cheese .
- Fold the pancakes in half and serve. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Add fresh corn, egg, milk, corn flour, sugar, and salt in a blender and blend until a thick paste form. Let stand for about 10 minutes for the mixture to thicken. (If your mixture is still too thin, add a little more masa harina or flour to thicken it to a spoon-able consistency.)
- Preheat a 5-1/2 inch frying pan, over medium heat.
- When the pan is hot, add some butter to grease it.
- Pour 1/3 cup of batter into the frying pan, making a circle around the pan.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes and flip with a spatula. Cook for 3 more minutes until the cachapa is golden brown.
- Place sliced mozzarella on one half of the cachapa and let it melt. Fold the other half over the cheese and spread some butter on top. These are best if served hot, straight from the skillet.

Steps:
- With a knife, remove the corn kernels from the cobs. Put the corn kernels and the other ingredients in the food processor and process. You must get a pancake-like consistency, not too thick.
- Preheat your griddle or a non-stick fry pan to medium high heat and lightly grease it with oil spray. Measure about half cup of the mixture and spread it with a round spoon over the pan until you get a circle of about 4 to 5 inches of diameter.
- When the surface starts to bubble, turn it over with a spatula and cook it on the other side. Each side takes about 2 minutes, depending on the thickness.
- Fill them with fresh cheese,in Venezuela, we fill them with "queso de mano" which is a white fresh cheese, delicious, but you could use for example a low fat soft white cheese or anything you want like nonfat slices of turkey or ham. Or even non-sugar jam Or no-fat cream cheese, ricotta, -- anything you want.
