1/2 pound bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups cubed peeled potatoes
2 cups frozen corn (from 12 ounce bag), thawed
1/2 cup onion, chopped

1 can (14.75 ounce) cream style sweet corn
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup milk

Steps:

Spray 6- to 7-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In 10-inch skillet, cook bacon until crisp; drain on paper towels. Discard drippings. Place bacon in slow cooker. Add remaining ingredients except milk; stir to combine. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 4 hours or until potatoes are tender. Stir in milk. Cover; cook about 30 minutes longer or until hot. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish individual bowls of chowder with additional crumbled cooked bacon, if desired. If corn is in season, use fresh corn cut from the cob instead of frozen.
