Green Chili & Corn Tamale Filling image

I have become known amongst our friends and relatives as the white east coast girl that can make darn good tamales. Here is the filling for my green chili & corn tamales that I have perfected during the last few years. As usual, I can't say that my measurements are exact...but....the key here is fresh ingredients, butter, and cream!
