Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp salted butter
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 bag (16 oz) frozen corn
  • 2 oz cream cheese, cut into chunks

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter: In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it covers the bottom of the skillet, preventing any sticking.
  2. Add the honey: Once the butter has fully melted, stir in the honey until it’s well incorporated with the butter, creating a sweet and savory base.
  3. Cook the corn: Add the frozen corn to the skillet, stirring constantly to coat each kernel with the honey-butter mixture. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the corn is heated through.
  4. Melt in the cream cheese: Reduce the heat to low and add the cream cheese chunks. Stir gently until the cream cheese melts and combines with the corn, creating a smooth, creamy texture.
  5. Simmer and serve: Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is heated through and fully blended. Serve hot, and enjoy the sweet, creamy goodness!

Notes

  • Use salted butter to enhance the flavor, but unsalted butter can be used with an added pinch of salt if preferred.
  • Ensure to stir constantly when cooking the corn to prevent it from sticking and to evenly coat the kernels.
  • Adjust honey amount to suit your sweetness preference.
  • This dish pairs well with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or can be served as a standalone vegetarian side.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute cream cheese with a vegan alternative.
