Ingredients

4 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned and drained)

2 tablespoons butter

1 cup heavy cream

½ cup whole milk

1 tablespoon cream cheese (optional, for extra creaminess)

1 tablespoon sugar (optional)

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water (optional, for a thicker sauce)

Chopped parsley for garnish


Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Corn

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally.


Step 2: Make the Creamy Sauce

Pour in the heavy cream and milk. Stir well and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.


Step 3: Season

Add the salt, black pepper, and sugar if using. Stir in the cream cheese until melted and smooth.


Step 4: Thicken

If you prefer thicker cream corn, stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook for another 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens.


Step 5: Serve

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm alongside roasted chicken, grilled steak, turkey, mashed potatoes, or your favorite comfort-food meal.


Tips for the Best Cream Corn

Fresh sweet corn provides the best flavor when it's in season.

Frozen corn is a great year-round alternative.

Add shredded cheddar or Parmesan cheese for an extra cheesy version.

Sprinkle with smoked paprika or crispy bacon for even more flavor.
