Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 ounces frozen corn kernels
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons optional chopped chives
Instructions
Spray the inside of the crock pot with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Add the frozen corn kernels to the crock pot, spreading them out evenly at the bottom.
Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and distribute them evenly over the corn.
Add the butter, heavy cream, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, granulated sugar, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Distribute the ingredients evenly for even cooking.
Stir everything together lightly to distribute the ingredients, but don’t worry about fully mixing them yet as they will meld together as they cook.
Set the crock pot to low heat and cook for 4 hours, stirring occasionally (about once an hour) to ensure even melting and mixing of the cheese and cream cheese.
After 4 hours, stir everything together thoroughly to create a smooth, cheesy, and creamy texture.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed (add more salt, pepper, or sugar to taste).
Sprinkle optional chopped chives on top for garnish before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish, and enjoy the rich, cheesy goodness!
