2 tablespoons salted butter
1 to 2 tablespoons honey adjust depending on desired sweetness
16 ounces frozen corn use a combo of white and yellow corn for nice color variety
2 ounces cream cheese
¼ teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

In a 10-inch skillet over medium heat, melt together butter and honey, about 2 minutes.
Add the frozen corn to the skillet and cook, occasionally stirring until heated through, about 10 minutes.
Add the cream cheese, salt, and pepper and stir over medium heat until the cream cheese has melted completely and the sauce is evenly combined.
Remove from the heat; season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
Serve immediately.

I love the color variety using white and sweet yellow corn. Sometimes you can find a combo bag. You can also simply use half a bag of yellow and half a bag of white corn.
This corn dish does not make a large quantity. I would recommend doubling it for more than just four people eating this as a small portion side dish.
This is a creamy, buttery, and sweet corn side dish. The salt and pepper add a savory touch to this honey-sweetened corn. For a less sweet dish, use just 1 tablespoon of honey.
