While the corn broils, stir the mayo, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, chili powder, and 1/4 tsp salt together until uniform. Stir in the cheese and set aside.
Remove the corn from the oven and brush the corn on all sides with the mayo mixture.
Return to the broiler and broil the coated corn until the cheese coating is warm and slightly brown on top, about 1 minute.
