While the corn is boiling, combine the softened unsalted butter, cajun seasoning blend, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Mix well to create the spicy butter.
Remove the corn from the boiling water using tongs and place it on a serving plate.
Using a brush or spoon, evenly spread the spicy butter mixture all over the hot corn on the cob.
Serve immediately while warm for best flavor and enjoy your spicy cajun seasoned corn on the cob.
