Nancy: I just wanted to share a recipe for a GREAT side dish
that I got from my Aunt Alice in Newton, KS when I was
looking for a scalloped corn recipe. I made this for the
first time as a side dish for Thanksgiving dinner and it is
so simple and so good that I wanted to make sure that all of
our Nancyland family has access to it.

Crock Pot Cream Cheese Corn
2 (16 oz) pkg frozen whole kernel corn
1 (8 oz) pkg cream cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes *
1 stick (1/4 lb) butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
salt and ground black pepper to taste (about a tsp each)
1 tsp granulated sugar (optional)
* For ease in cubing the cream cheese, place it in the
freezer for 30 to 45 minutes to get it firm.
Place the frozen corn in the bottom of a crock pot. Add the
cubed cream cheese and butter, cover and cook on LOW heat
setting for 6 to 8 hours. After four hours, add the
seasonings and sugar, if using, and stir well. Stir every 30
to 45 minutes after the first 4 hours of cooking. Serve hot
directly from the crock or transfer to a serving dish.
Yield: 8 to 10 servings.
Cook's Note: I used 2 packages of corn that were a
combination of white and yellow corn and the presentation of
the two colors was impressive, or so I thought.
