Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups frozen corn kernels
- 8 oz cream cheese, cubed
- 1 stick unsalted butter, cubed
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
Instructions
Spray the inside of a crock pot (4 to 6 quart capacity) with non-stick cooking spray or lightly grease with butter.
Add the frozen corn kernels to the crock pot, spreading them out evenly.
Distribute the cubed cream cheese and butter evenly over the corn.
Sprinkle the sugar, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder over the mixture.
Pour the whole milk over the ingredients in the crock pot.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 4 hours, stirring occasionally to mix the ingredients and prevent sticking.
After 4 hours, stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure the cream cheese and butter are fully melted and blended into the corn.
If using shredded cheddar cheese, sprinkle it on top, stir, and let it melt for another 10 minutes with the lid on.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
