Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Honey
  • 16 ounce Frozen Corn
  • 3 ounces Cream Cheese cut into chunks. I just cut off 1/3 of an 8 ounce block.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper Freshly ground

Instructions

  • Heat a cast iron skillet, or heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add honey and butter and melt together. Stirring to combine.
  • Once melted add the frozen corn and cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through.
  • Add cream cheese, salt, and pepper.Stir together and let it cook about 3-5 minutes while stirring occasionally.

Notes

Tips For Success:
  • Allow about an hour for the cream cheese to come to room temperature.
  • Use good quality frozen corn. I have found some of the generic brands can tend to be tougher and not as sweet.
  • Try topping Honey Butter Skillet Corn with a sprinkle of New Mexico Red Chile Powder. It simply adds a Southwestern kick of heat to the end flavor.
  • When in season, add fresh chopped chives for garnish.
