There are many versions of Funeral Potatoes. Some recipes call for adding cheese and using buttered bread crumbs on top. This is the “deluxe” casserole.
1 (30-ounce) package frozen shredded or diced hash browns, thawed
Chopped green onion (tops only – optional)
Instructions
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9 x 13 x 2-inch or comparable casserole.
Topping
In a medium bowl, gently crush the cornflakes. Toss with the butter and set aside.
Casserole
Combine condensed soup, sour cream, 2 cups Cheddar cheese and onion flakes in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Gently mix in hash browns until well combined. Pour into the prepared casserole dish.
Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese and cornflakes.
Bake uncovered until cheese is melted and the top is crisp, about 45 minutes.
