Slow Cooker Cheddar Corn with Bacon

Prepare the ingredients by cooking the bacon until crispy and then crumbling it. Shred the cheddar cheese and set aside.
In a slow cooker, combine the frozen corn, shredded cheese, crumbled bacon, heavy cream, melted butter, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well to ensure even distribution of all ingredients.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper, then stir again to incorporate the seasonings thoroughly.
Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent the cheese from sticking and to ensure even cooking.
Once cooked, stir the corn mixture one last time. Adjust the seasoning if necessary. Optionally, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving to enhance flavor and presentation.
