Allow the butter and honey to melt together, mixing them as they heat.

Add 24 ounces of frozen corn to the skillet, tossing it to coat with the butter and honey.

Cook the corn for about 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally and breaking up any larger pieces of corn.

Optionally, cover the skillet to trap heat and moisture while cooking.

After 6 to 8 minutes, add softened cream cheese to the corn mixture.

Season with salt, pepper, and optionally garlic powder and onion powder.

Stir everything together until well combined, adding a tablespoon or two of water if needed to smooth the cream cheese.

Plate the corn and serve.
