Cheesy Cornflake Potatoes
August 1, 2010
We grilled some steaks for dinner tonight, and I made a comfort food side dish that is one of my husbands favorite things. Cheesy Cornflake Potatoes. They are very simple to make, but don't underestimate the melty, cheesy, goodness. The recipe is from my mother-in-law, and uses two cans of condensed soup, but you can use homemade condensed soup, or a white sauce if you don't want to use the store bought kind. Sprinkled with a buttery, cornflake topping, these potatoes shamelessly tempt you to have a second helping.
Cheesy Cornflake Potatoes
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
8 oz sour cream
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
12 oz frozen hashbrown potatoes, thawed
2 cups cornflakes, crushed
1 tbsp butter, melted
In a large bowl mix the soups, sour cream, and shredded cheese. Stir until well combined. Add the thawed hashbrown potatoes, and stir until thoroughly mixed. Pour the potatoes mixture into a 9 x 13 dish, or one of similar size. Put the cornflakes in a medium sized bowl, and coarsely crush. Melt the butter, and pour over the cornflakes. Stir to mix. Sprinkle the cornflake mixture over the potato mixture, making sure the potatoes are evenly covered. Bake at 350F for one hour.
Eat me.

Do you think I could cut up potatoes and throw them in instead of using frozen hashbrowns?
I was wondering...do you think I could cut up potatoes into small chunks and use them instead of frozen hashbrowns-thawed? I thought perhaps it would make it cheaper....
Hi Ricek! Yes, you can totally use cubed potatoes. I would just make sure to cube them pretty small, so the chunks aren't too large. Also, you may need to adjust your cooking time, since hashbrowns are so thin, the potatoes cook quicker than larger chunks of potato. You could also make your own hashbrowns, just shred up some potatoes instead of dicing it. :)
