Ingredients
- 4 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
Instructions
- Cook the Corn: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the corn kernels. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the corn is warmed through and slightly tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add Butter and Honey: Stir in the unsalted butter and honey until the butter is melted and the mixture is well combined with the corn, creating a sweet and buttery coating.
- Incorporate Cream Cheese: Reduce heat to low, then add the softened cream cheese. Stir continuously until the cream cheese is fully melted and blended into the corn, creating a creamy, smooth texture. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use fresh corn for the best flavor, but frozen corn works well and is convenient.
- Adjust the amount of honey to taste if you prefer a sweeter or less sweet side dish.
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat cream cheese and unsalted butter.
- This dish pairs wonderfully with grilled meats or as a complement to barbecue.
