Preheat your grill to medium heat.
Husk the corn and remove the silk. You can leave the stem on as a handle, or cut it off.
Grill the corn, turning occasionally, until the kernels are lightly charred and tender, about 10-15 minutes.
While the corn is grilling, prepare the sauce by mixing together the Mexican crema (or sour cream) and mayonnaise in a small bowl.
Once the corn is grilled, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Spread the crema mixture evenly over each ear of corn.
Sprinkle generously with crumbled Cotija cheese and chili powder.
Squeeze fresh lime juice over the corn.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
