1
Prepare the Corn
If using fresh corn, shuck the corn and remove the kernels from the cob using a sharp knife. You should have about 4 cups of corn kernels.
2
Measure Ingredients
Gather all the ingredients: corn kernels, heavy cream, butter, sugar, salt, and black pepper. If using optional ingredients, prepare the fresh herbs and cheese as well.

3
Melt Butter
In a large skillet or saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam.
4
Add Corn and Seasoning
Add the corn kernels to the skillet along with the sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
5
Add Heavy Cream
Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and stir to mix everything together. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
6
Cook Until Thickened
Allow the mixture to simmer on low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is tender and the cream has thickened slightly.
7
Add Optional Ingredients
If using, stir in the chopped fresh herbs and grated cheese during the last few minutes of cooking until the cheese is melted and well incorporated.

8
Serve the Cream Corn
Remove from heat and transfer the cream corn to a serving dish. Serve warm as a side dish.
