Instructions

1

Melt Butter with Corn

Place the corn kernels and butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the butter is fully melted and the corn is hot.

2

Add Cream and Seasoning

Stir in the heavy cream, sugar, salt, and black pepper until everything is combined. The sugar enhances the natural sweetness of the corn without making it taste overly sweet.

3

Final Cook and Serve

Microwave uncovered on high for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, stirring once midway, until the cream has thickened slightly and coats the corn beautifully. Serve hot.

Substitutions

Common mistakes

Boiling the cream too aggressively in the microwave which causes it to curdle and become grainy
Skipping the sugar which leaves the creamed corn tasting flat and missing its signature sweetness
