Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Line a baking sheet with a rim (like this jelly roll pan), with foil and set aside.
  2. Rub softened butter over each ear of corn and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.  Line ears of corn up on prepared baking sheet and bake for 35 - 40 minutes, turning halfway through.
  3. While corn is baking, add all orange basil butter ingredients to a small mixing bowl and use a small rubber spatula (I love this one), or a spoon to combine well.  
  4. When corn is finished baking, slather them with the flavored butter and serve!
