Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 (26 oz) bag frozen hashbrowns
- 2 cans cream of mushroom soup
- 2 cups sour cream
- 1 1/2 - 3 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup ritz crackers, crushed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° F.
- Pull the frozen hashbrowns out of the freezer and let them sit at room temp while making the sauce.
- In a large pot over medium high heat, combine the cream of mushroom soup and sour cream, stirring until the mixture is bubbling.
- Slowly add in the grated sharp cheddar cheese, stirring and allowing the cheese to melt before adding in more cheese.
- Taste the sauce as you add in more cheese to flavor the sauce to your liking. We like it cheesy so I use 3 cups of cheese.
- Once the sauce is finished and the cheese has completely melted, remove from heat.
- Pour the hash browns into a 9x13 pan.
- Pour the cheese sauce overtop of the hashbrowns and spread to cover.
- Sprinkle the crushed ritz crackers on top of the cheese sauce.
- Bake at 350° F for 45-50 minutes or until the dish is heated through and bubbling.
- Allow the potatoes to cool for 10 minutes before serving + enjoy!
