Ingredients
Steps
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180 °C) (175°C (350 °F)) and grease a standard casserole dish.
Pour 2 pounds of frozen potatoes into the greased casserole dish.
Add 2 cups of sour cream, one can of cream of chicken soup, and 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese to the dish.
Pour 1 stick (1/2 cup) of melted butter over the potato mixture.
Season the mixture with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to taste.
Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly within the dish and spread it out into an even layer.
Crush 2 cups of cornflakes and pour them over the top of the potato mixture.
Use a spoon or spatula to spread the crushed cornflakes out into an even layer covering the potatoes.
Drizzle 6 tablespoons of melted butter evenly over the cornflake topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 75 minutes until the topping is golden brown and crunchy and the potatoes are bubbly.
