Ingredients
For the potatoes:
- 16 ounces sour cream
- 10 ounces cream of chicken soup
- 2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 32 ounces frozen diced hash browns
For the topping:
- 2 cups corn flakes cereal
- ¼ cup melted butter
Instructions
To make the potatoes:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
- Add the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, shredded cheddar, butter, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt to a large mixing bowl and stir well to combine.
- Stir in the potatoes to coat.
- Spread into the prepared baking dish.
Cup of Yum
To make the topping:
- Add the cornflakes and melted butter to a small bowl and stir to combine.
- Sprinkle the cornflakes over the potatoes and place dish in the oven.
To bake:
- Bake, uncovered, for 50-55 minutes or until potatoes are tender and dish is hot and bubbly.
Notes
- Make Ahead: Assemble everything but the topping and place in a tightly covered baking dish in the fridge for 1-2 days. Before baking, remove the foil and top with the cornflakes. It may take an extra 5-10 minutes to cook through if baking straight from the fridge.
- Potatoes: You may thaw the frozen hash browns in the fridge overnight before adding to the casserole for a softer textured potato. We usually skip this step, but some people do prefer the texture of the potatoes after they've thawed.
