Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter (salted recommended)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 bag (16 oz) frozen corn
- 2 ounces cream cheese, cut into chunks
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Melt Butter and Honey: In a skillet pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter and honey together, creating a sweet and buttery base for the dish.
- Cook Corn: Add the frozen corn to the skillet. Cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is fully cooked and warmed through.
- Add Cream Cheese and Seasoning: Stir in the cream cheese chunks, salt, and black pepper. Continue to cook for 3-5 minutes while stirring occasionally, allowing the cream cheese to melt and combine into a creamy sauce coating the corn.
- Serve: Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture. Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Use salted butter for best flavor balance with the honey and corn.
- Stir frequently to prevent the cream cheese from sticking and ensure even melting.
- Can be kept covered in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated gently on stovetop.
- Adjust salt and pepper to taste based on your preference.
- For a spicy twist, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika.
