- 3 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

- 4 tablspoons butter, melted
homemade cream of chicken soup
- 2 tbs flour
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup chicken broth, (I use low sodium)

Instructions
- To make the homemade cream of chicken soup, melt butter in a large sauce pan. Sprinkle flour into the pan and stir until mixture comes together. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and milk until incorporated. Bring to a boil and continue to stir until sauce thickens. Remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan. In a large bowl combine hash brown potatoes, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, cheddar cheese, salt and pepper to taste, and cream of chicken soup, and mix well.
- Spread mixture into prepared baking pan. Cover with crushed cornflakes. Drizzle melted butter over the cornflake topping.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes until mixture is bubbly and cornflakes are golden brown on top. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Make ahead: prepare this dish ahead of time, cover with foil, and refrigerate up to 24 hours before baking. If baking chilled, add 15-20 minutes onto the baking time.
