Ingredients

• 4 cups Fresh corn kernels (from about 6 ears of corn)
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (optional, for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Using a sharp knife, cut the kernels off the corn cobs. Scrape the cobs with the back of the knife to release the corn 'milk' for extra creaminess. Set the corn kernels aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet or sauté pan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the corn kernels to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes until the corn is slightly softened.

Step 4

Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the corn and stir to evenly coat. Cook for an additional 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium-low and slowly add the heavy cream and whole milk, stirring continuously to combine.

Step 6

Stir in the granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture simmer gently for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the corn thickens and becomes creamy.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with additional salt or pepper.

Step 8

Optional: Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top and let it melt for extra flavor.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm as a side dish.
