CREAMY FRIED CONFETTI CORN

This is probably not a vintage recipe but it is one I have had for several years.

8 bacon slices, chopped 

4 cups fresh sweet corn kernels (about 8 ears) 

1 medium-size white onion, chopped 

1/3 cup chopped red bell pepper 

1/3 cup chopped green bell pepper 

1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, cubed 

1/2 cup half-and-half 

1 teaspoon sugar 

1 teaspoon salt 

1 teaspoon pepper

Cook chopped bacon in a large skillet until crisp; remove bacon, and drain on paper towels, reserving 2 tablespoons drippings in skillet. Set bacon aside.

Sauté corn, onion, and bell peppers in hot drippings in skillet over medium-high heat 6 minutes or until tender. Add cream cheese and half-and-half, stirring until cream cheese melts. Stir in sugar, salt, and pepper. Top with bacon.
