Cream Corn

If you're like me, you grew up eating cream corn from a can. Don't get me wrong, I liked it fairly well... but then I went to Rudy's BBQ and my life was changed. This creamed corn was different, and I craved it. I found a recipe years ago and this is a regular for potlucks, holidays, and barbecues!

Ingredients

  • 2 10 oz. packages frozen corn kernels, thawed
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 t. salt
  • 2 T. granulated sugar
  • 1/2 t. freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 T. butter
  • 1 c. whole milk
  • 2 T. all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Directions
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, combine corn, cream, salt, sugar, pepper, and butter.
  2. Whisk together milk and flour, and stir into the corn mixture.
  3. Cook stirring over medium heat until the mixture is thickened, and corn is cooked through.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted. Serve hot.

  1. I love this cream corn. I am often asked to bring it to family gatherings. Here are some proportions that I came up with for the 40 ounce bag of frozen corn from HEB.

    40 oz defrosted bag of sweet corn
    1 1/2 cup heavy cream
    1 1/2 tsp salt
    pepper
    3 TB of sugar
    3 TB of butter
    1 1/2 cup of milk
    3 TB of flour

    I don't add the parmesan.
    I usually make 2 of of these at one time for a family gathering.
