Happy Happy Tuesday everybody!!! I hope everyone had a wonderful (and hopefully long) weekend like I did. The weekend was certainly improved by the making (and obviously the eating) of this incredible recipe. These are the kinds of recipes that are my absolute favorite, super easy, not a crazy amount of ingredients and downright addictive.
I was lucky enough to try these delicious cheesy potatoes at a Christmas party and the hostess was nice enough to send me the recipe after I told her I was officially obsessed with this dish. Funny enough, she had first tried this deliciousness at a work party and also confessed her love of the recipe to the bringer of this dish, so here we are, sharing it on the Internet, but I have no idea of it’s origins haha. You really can’t beat (a basically) one bowl recipe, I mean obviously you’ll need a smaller bowl for the corn flakes/butter mixture but that’s no biggie.
I had everything ready to go into the oven before my oven was even done pre-heating if that gives you any indication of how fast this one is to throw together. This casserole is so deliciously filled with hash browns and cheese that cook up so well together, and let’s not forget the absolutely wonderful, crunchy and buttery topping, you will definitely be going back for seconds thirds, fourths but I certainly won’t judge. I hope you get to make this crowd-pleaser soon, are having a wonderful day and thank you so much for stopping by!!!
