Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter (salted preferred)
2 tablespoons honey
16 oz frozen corn kernels
2 oz cream cheese, cubed
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the butter and honey, stirring until completely melted and well combined.
Add the frozen corn to the skillet and stir to coat evenly.
Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is heated through and lightly caramelized.
Reduce heat to low and add the cream cheese cubes.
Stir continuously for 2–3 minutes until the cream cheese melts and creates a smooth, creamy sauce.
Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Pair it with mashed potatoes or baked potatoes for a comforting meal.
Spoon it over rice or quinoa for a quick and satisfying bowl.
Garnish with fresh parsley or chopped chives for a pop of color and freshness.
