Skillet Corn with Honey Butter and Cream Cheese (Print-Friendly Version)

Frozen corn heats in honey butter before cream cheese is stirred through it. Let moisture from the corn reduce before adding the dairy so the sauce coats the kernels rather than turning soupy. This is a small stovetop side with separate vegetable-heating and sauce-finishing stages.
