Recipe: Cream Cheese Corn

 

Cream Cheese Corn

My sister and I were planning meals for when our family visits and I mentioned this recipe.  I realized I have never shared it on here.  It is a great recipe for a holiday meal-Thanksgiving or Christmas or even for a special meal for visiting guests.  It is easy and yummy!

5 cups frozen corn

2 tablespoons butter

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

8 ounces cream cheese, cubed

1/2 cup milk

2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley, optional

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the frozen corn, butter, salt, and ground black pepper. Saute the corn until heated all the way through - about 5-6 minutes.

Next, reduce the heat to medium and add the cream cheese and milk. Continue cooking, stirring constantly until the cream cheese has melted into the milk to form a sauce. The sauce will thicken. Do not leave unattended and continue to stir; the cream cheese sauce will burn easily.

Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in the freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
