Instructions
1
Melt the butter over medium heat in a 10-inch skillet.
2
Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes.
3
Next, add the green onions and corn and cook until the corn thaws, about 5 minutes. Stir frequently.
4
To the skillet, add the salt, pepper, sugar, 1¼ cups of heavy cream, and ¼ cup of the cheese, bring to a simmer and let gently bubble for 5 minutes.
5
In the meantime, make a slurry with the remaining ¼ cup of cream and the cornstarch and pour it into the bubbling mixture. Stir until it thickens and shut the heat off.
6
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on the top in a thin even layer and broil it until the cheese is melted, brown, and bubbly!
