Let me just say that my husband does NOT like veggies. Trying to make him eat a salad is almost impossible – but this dish…. Well lets just say I have to fight him for any of it. You get the freshness of the corn, mixed with the creaminess of the cream cheese and butter; a hint of heat from the red pepper flakes. Super easy to make and will be a favorite with any picky eaters. This dish is gluten – free.

I just made this and the Mac and cheese and i must say it was amazing
Oh my….. I didn’t know that cream corn could be improved….but i will be trying this! Gj
made this and it was delish!! we are adding it to our Easter menu! thank you!
seriously…this was so good and sooooooooo easy! The teenagers commented on it before I even asked! yay! This is a new favorite! Thanks for sharing!
Yay!! I am so glad. It is one of my favorites as well.
Your photo shows 8 ox cream cheese but the recipe calls for 3 oz. Just wanted to confirm the amount before i make this for Easter! Thank you
Yes it is 3 oz — I always post the product full before use.
Do you have to put this in the oven and if so, at what temperature do you cook it at?
No you do not put it in the oven
I am going to try and prepare this before going to church this morning and I ws going to attempt to put it in the crockpot. Do you think that it will work if I just cook it and then put it in there on the warm setting? Thanks for the recipe!
That should work – all you are doing is heating the ingredients together
My husband has been making this for years just without the pepper flakes. He seasons with salt and pepper. He always makes it in the crockpot and lets it cook for a while and meld together. Yummy! Make sure to use a crock pot liner for easy clean up!
Great recipe and easy to make! I made this yesterday for Easter and it was a big hit…who knew a simple corn dish could be a big deal? Everyone loved the subtle addition of “heat” the red pepper flakes brought to the dish. Thanks for sharing this recipe
My family has been making this recipe ( without the red pepper) for generations! It is a staple for family holiday tables!
Do you eat this as a side, or with crackers or chips?
Any way you want
can you use canned corn?
thanks!
whenever u respond! lol
A little too cream cheesy for me so I added extra corn and a handful of cheddar. Yum!
I just made this! Wow! I didn’t have quite enough corn, so I used peas, too. Delicious.
I am so glad you liked it
It is so simply but SO good
Hi, just made this tonight and everybody loved it. I changed the red pepper flakes to sumac and the sharpness of that really hit the palette along with the sweetness of the sweetcorn.
Thanks for the inspiration.

I’m going to try this soon. I got all the ingredients. I don’t have a scale though. How many cups would u say 1 lb of corn is? I’m planning to just put 2 cups. Is that about right?
A lb is 16 oz… A cup is 8 oz, so a lb is 2 cups!
A cup is a measure of volume, not weight ( 1 cup=8 oz water using a liquid measuring cup). For other liquids and solids, the measurement is a function of volume, not weight (1 cup of feathers does not equal 8 oz but it still equals 1 cup in volume). Just be aware of this, otherwise you may end up with the wrong proportions.
I have been making this for years and we love it. The only thing I do differently is use white corn! It makes for a beautiful, sort of monotone- colored dish and everyone is intrigued when they see it and everyone asks for the recipe. Thanx for sharing.
My kind of recipies! Easy, cheap, and YUMMY!! Thanks!
Just saw this on Pinterest and had to come over and see. Sounds really delicious!
I made this tonight and LOVE it…..I added some red bell peppers to it as well. I will definitely make it again.
Yay! I am glad that you liked it
My mom and I have been making this for years. We had a little sugar to the Butter and cream cheese. He also add like a 1/2 stick of real butter and a whole pkg of cream cheese. Its amazing. I am going to try it without the cream cheese and see if my son likes it better. He is the only one that its not his favorite.
How many servings does this recipe make?
About 4 – hope this helps
I modified it and added cheddar cheese and a little garlic powder and it was outstanding!
I make a version of this recipe in the crock pot! So yummy and super easy!
This is very similar to a dip I like to make with Fritos. Corn, butter, cream cheese, and diced jalepeno peppers! Mine goes like this:
1 stick butter
1 8 oz. pkg cream cheese
1 can corn
1/2 cup diced jalepenos
Melt. Dip. Yum.
I just made this for dinner w some chicken and it is great! We loved! Seems so simple but has the perfect flavor.
Thank you for sharing this recipe. Looks delicious.
This is corn with a new touch. Sounds wonderful.
I have made this a lot and it is great…I didn’t use the red pepper flakes but I will try it.
Now I found a use for the left over chile pepper from the pizza place!!
I’m using 2 giant cans of corn about how much cream cheese n red pepper flakes to use?
I used three 15.5 oz cans and one pack cream cheese. The red pepper flakes are just to taste.
I made this dish except I added elbow noodles, bacon and seasoned salt. My family raved about it!!
This was amazing!! I didn’t use the red pepper flakes but I put onion powder and paprika in instead. It was delicious!!!!!!!!
Found this on Pinterest & made it tonight…it is THE BEST corn I’ve ever had! Loved it!!
It really rocks
THANKS CHEF…I CREATED MY OWN VERSION WITH HELP OF UR RECIPE….CHEERS
Saw this on Pinterest tonight…. just thought I would share my version..
3 cans of corn
1 8oz. cream cheese
a little butter
chopped jalapeno… (never measure …..just to taste)
microwave until melted & heated… serve with crackers or nacho chips…
I always make this for taco night & it is always a hit…..
Thanks for sharing your version, I will definitly give it a try….
Sooo thankful for this inspiration. Love the dash of red pepper flake. I also add some bits of onion and roasted red peps. Then sprinkle a tad of shredded chedder or the mexican blend cheese on top. Yum!
I thought I had made this up! I threw a few things together one evening and it was a hit! My hubs is the same way…HATES veggies! But, he LOVES this corn! I do jalapeno, not red pepper flakes, Mmmmm
The husband Actually said ” this is really good ” and that’s saying something for a guy who isn’t big on veggies !
Just made this for a group and added cooked bacon pieces and cheddar cheese on top!! Mmmm!
All I can say is WOW!! Trust me try it!
I make mine without the pepper & red flakes, instead I add garlic salt! Put it all in a crockpot and let it melt, yum!
I add canned green chiles to mine. Always goes over well at get togethers.
This was delicious and so simple! Thanks!
I add a small can of diced green chilis to this corn recipe instead of red pepper flakes, have also added powdered sugar. My family loves it either way!!
lol nevermind i just read the recipe, 4 servings
