1. Remove the corn's husk and, using a sharp knife, cut the kernels off the cob from top to bottom. Collect the kernels with their juices in a large bowl or cake pan. Using the back of the knife, squeeze the corn milk from the cobs. Repeat with each cob of corn.
2. Add your butter to a large skillet over medium heat, let it melt, then toss in the garlic, jalapeno peppers, and Creole seasoning. Stir for about a minute until it's fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
3. Combine fresh corn, flour, and milk, stirring until the flour absorbs into the liquid.
