Transform corn into a creamy, dreamy side! Our Honey Butter Skillet Corn quickly combines sweet honey, rich butter, and velvety cream cheese for an unforgettable dish.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 (15-ounce) cans whole kernel corn, drained, or 16 ounces frozen corn
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Melt the butter and honey in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring until well combined and the butter is fully melted.
  2. Step 2: Add the drained corn to the skillet. Stir to coat the corn evenly with the honey butter mixture and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is heated through.
  3. Step 3: Reduce the heat to low. Add the softened cream cheese and heavy cream to the skillet. Stir continuously until the cream cheese is fully melted and incorporated, creating a smooth, creamy sauce.
  4. Step 4: Season the corn with salt and black pepper. Stir well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  5. Step 5: Allow the corn to simmer gently for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has slightly thickened to your desired creamy consistency.
  6. Step 6: Remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish generously with fresh chopped chives before serving immediately as a delicious side dish.

Notes

  • Store any leftover Skillet Corn in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, though it's always best enjoyed fresh.
  • Gently reheat leftovers on the stovetop over low heat, stirring occasionally, and add a tablespoon or two of milk or cream if the sauce seems too thick or separated, bringing it back to creamy perfection.
  • This sweet and savory corn is a wonderfully versatile side, perfect alongside grilled chicken, roasted turkey, or even as a special addition to your holiday spread.
  • For the silkiest, lump-free sauce, ensure your cream cheese is at true room temperature and cut into small cubes before adding it to the skillet, allowing it to melt into the cream effortlessly.
