Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9" x 13" baking dish with nonstick spray; set aside.
  2. Hashbrown Casserole: Place hashbrowns in a large mixing bowl; set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine shredded cheese, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, melted butter, dried onion, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  4. Add cheese mixture to hashbrowns and fold to combine. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
  5. Corn Flakes Topping: In a small bowl, combine melted butter with crushed corn flakes. Sprinkle over top of casserole.
  6. Bake & Serve: Cover dish with foil and bake for 60 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until casserole is thoroughly hot. If you'd like an extra crunchy topping, set the dish under the broiler for a few minutes. Top with chopped green onions or chives. Serve hot!

Notes

  • To make ahead of time: The day before (or hours before), completely prepare the dish, except do not add the corn flakes topping. When ready to bake, stir together the crushed corn flakes and melted butter, and then sprinkle over the casserole. Proceed as per the directions. You may need to cook the dish with the foil on a little longer since the dish is cold.
  • To double this recipe in a crockpot: Note that you will need a larger crockpot. I use a 7-quart multi-cooker. Just double all the ingredients and omit the cornflake topping (because it does not get crisp in the slow cooker!). Add hashbrowns to the slow cooker. Then, in a medium bowl, stir together the rest of the ingredients. Fold this mixture into the hashbrowns. Turn slow cooker to high heat and cook for 4 to 5 hours, stirring halfway through.
