Creamy Fried Confetti Corn

Once again, I am borrowing a friend's recipe from their Blog! This one just sounded too good to pass up. Thanks Jana!

CREAMY FRIED CONFETTI CORN

8 bacon slices, chopped
4 cups fresh sweet corn kernels (about 8 ears)
1 med. white onion, chopped
1/3 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/3 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, cubed
1/2 cup half-and-half
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. 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.

*You can make this ahead the day before. Just warm it up covered in a 350 degree oven for 20-30 min.
