Casserole Ingredients

4 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
8 ounces cream cheese, cubed
4 tablespoons butter, sliced
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients: Add the corn kernels into the slow cooker, ensuring they are evenly spread. If using frozen corn, you can add it directly without thawing.
Add Cream Cheese and Butter: Place the cubed cream cheese evenly over the corn, then lay sliced butter on top to help create a rich, creamy texture as it melts.
Pour Milk and Seasonings: Pour the milk over the mixture and sprinkle the sugar, salt, and pepper evenly across the top to balance and enhance all the flavors.
Cook Low and Slow: Cover the slow cooker and cook on the LOW setting for 3 to 4 hours, stirring every hour or so to ensure even melting and smooth consistency.
Final Stir and Serve: Once everything is melted and combined, give it a final good stir to fully blend the creamy casserole before serving hot.

Notes

Cube cream cheese ahead of time to promote faster and more uniform melting.
Stir the casserole occasionally during cooking to help all ingredients combine smoothly.
Do not skip the sugar; it enhances the natural sweetness of corn beautifully.
For easier mixing, bring cream cheese to room temperature before assembling.
Fresh or frozen corn can be used interchangeably without thawing.
For a richer variation, substitute milk with heavy cream.
