Funeral potatoes are creamy and cheesy potatoes that are topped with buttered cornflakes and baked to golden brown perfection. A super easy casserole that's perfect for feeding a crowd and always gets rave reviews!
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9"x13" baking dish with cooking spray.
Place the hash browns, 4 tablespoons butter, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, onion, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and cheddar cheese in a bowl. Stir to combine.
Spoon the hash brown mixture into the prepared pan.
Place the cornflakes in a bowl and add the remaining 6 tablespoons of butter. Toss to coat.
Sprinkle the cornflake mixture over the potato layer.
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until top is golden brown. Sprinkle with parsley if desired, then serve.

Notes
Be sure to mince your onion finely for this dish, as you only want small pieces in each bite.
The cornflakes in this dish should be coarsely crushed. You can achieve this by placing the cereal in a resealable bag and lightly pounding it with a meat mallet or a rolling pin.
I recommend using freshly grated cheese for your casserole. The pre-shredded bags of cheese at the grocery store often contain preservatives and anti caking agents and do not melt smoothly.
