How to Make:
Combine: This rich tasting, creamy corn recipe is easy to make! Start by adding the corn, cream cheese, butter, milk, water, salt, and sugar to your crockpot and stir well to combine.
Pro Tip!
The sugar in this recipe doesn’t make it overly sweet. It just enhances the natural sweetness of the corn and pairs perfectly with the salty bacon and bite of the green onion.
Heat: Set the crockpot corn and cream cheese mixture to low heat and cook until the cheese has melted, about 3 to 4 hours.
Use a crockpot liner to make clean up a breeze!
Serve: Stir the cheesy corn well and top with the bacon and green onions before serving!
Helpful Tips!
- You can swap the frozen corn for fresh corn cut off the cob, if desired.
- Try to avoid opening the crockpot to peek as it lets out a lot of heat and increases the cook time.
- Store in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave.
Additions:
Try adding some of these options to change up the flavors!
- In addition to the cream cheese you could add shredded Cheddar, Colby, Pepper Jack, or other cheeses to this dish. Anything that pairs well with corn and crumbled bacon!
- Add some garlic powder if you like that flavor.
- Some diced jalapenos will add a little heat!

When would you add the cheese? At first, or with the bacon and green onions?

I think either would be fine. If you want it more melty and like a cheese sauce add at the beginning. If you just want it softer, but not quite as saucy, add it at the end. 🙂
