Step-by-Step Instructions

Start by gathering your slow cooker and adding frozen corn, cubed cream cheese, heavy cream, butter, sugar, black pepper, and kosher salt. Make sure everything is well distributed within the pot.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low heat for 4 hours.
After 4 hours of cooking, carefully remove the lid and give the mixture a good stir.
If you’re not ready to serve immediately, you can keep the slow cooker on low or warm for an additional 1-2 hours.
Scoop generous portions into bowls and serve.
