This is a holiday classic, creamy potato casserole with a crunchy cornflake topping.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 lb frozen southern style hash browns
  • Salt and pepper
  • 8 oz. sour cream
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 8 oz. shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 cups crushed cornflakes

Instructions

  1. Do the prep. Preheat the oven to 350°F or 177°C. Coat a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Assemble the casserole. Place the frozen hash browns in the baking dish and season with salt and pepper. Melt ¼ cup (or 1/2 a stick) of the butter and pour it over the potatoes. In a medium bowl,  combine sour cream, cream of chicken soup, and cheddar cheese. Spread the cheese mixture over the potatoes.
  3. Make the topping. Melt the remaining ¼ cup of butter and mix it gently with 2 cups of crushed cornflakes. Sprinkle the buttered cornflakes over the casserole.
  4. Bake. Cover the casserole dish with foil. Bake in the heated oven for 1 hour. Remove the foil and cook the dish for 15 minutes more, or until the cornflakes are browned on top and the casserole is bubbly.
