Roasted Corn Crostini With Whipped Feta

I’ve been hearing about “whipped feta” for awhile now. I wanted to do something kind of different from the uses I’ve been seeing. I wasn’t quite sure what direction I would go, when my girlfriend dropped by. She had cleaned out her fridge a bit because her son was heading out to summer break with…
