Ingredients
- 16 ounces frozen corn
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 ounces cream cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Heat Corn: In a large skillet, heat the frozen corn over medium-high heat, stirring often, until hot. This ensures the corn is evenly warmed through before adding other ingredients.
- Add Honey and Butter: Add the honey and butter to the hot corn and stir until the butter is melted and incorporated. This creates a sweet and buttery base for the sauce.
- Melt Cream Cheese: Cut the cream cheese into small chunks and add them to the skillet along with the salt and pepper. Allow the cream cheese to melt, stirring occasionally, until it fully blends into the honey butter sauce, creating a creamy texture.
- Serve: Serve the corn immediately while hot as a delicious and comforting side dish.
Notes
- For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of garlic powder.
- Use fresh corn if available, adjust cooking time accordingly.
- To make this dish vegan, substitute butter with plant-based margarine, honey with maple syrup, and cream cheese with vegan cream cheese.
- Stir frequently to prevent the cream cheese from sticking or burning.
- Adjust sweetness or saltiness to taste by varying honey and salt amounts.
