Step 1

Add water to a large saucepan until it is about half full of water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Carefully drop the corn into the boiling water. Cover and allow the water to return to a boil. Remove cover and boil for 5 minutes, or until a corn kernel (when poked with a sharp knife) bursts.

Step 3

Remove from heat and transfer corn to a cutting board. Pat dry with paper towels and stack on a serving plate. Spread 1 tablespoon of butter over each and serve!
