Ingredients

• 4 cups sweet corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

If using fresh corn, shuck the corn and use a sharp knife to cut the kernels off the cob. If using frozen corn, thaw it, and if using canned corn, drain and rinse it. Set the corn aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet or saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Once the butter is melted and bubbly, add the corn kernels to the pan and stir to coat them evenly in butter.

Step 4

Cook the corn for 3-4 minutes, occasionally stirring, until heated through and slightly softened.

Step 5

Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and add to the pan. Stir until the cream cheese melts and combines with the corn.

Step 6

Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously to create a creamy sauce.

Step 7

Add the sugar, ground black pepper, and salt. Stir well to combine and adjust seasoning to taste as needed.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the corn.

Step 9

Remove from heat and transfer the Yum Yum Corn to a serving dish.

Step 10

Optional: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!
