Funeral Potatoes I usually make this without the topping listed here. I might try it this time, though. Very yummy! Make these every Thanksgiving and the bowl is cleaned out. Here's the recipe:

24 oz. frozen shredded or grated potatoes - thawed
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 pint (16 oz. ) sour cream
1-2 stalks of chopped green onions
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/2 cup melted butter or real margarine (not the vegetable spread that everyone thinks is margarine)
salt & pepper to taste
Combine all of the above and put into a 9 x 13 " pan.
Topping:
2 - 2 1/2 cups corn flakes
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/4 cup melted butter or margarine
Melt butter in a large frying pan and add corn flakes and cheese to coat. Remove corn flake mixture from pan and spread evenly over potato mixture in the 9 x 13" pan. Pat down a little to smooth and make even. Bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes depending on your oven

Funeral Potatoes

*cringe* There's a lovely lady in my church growing up that made a recipe like this every time there was a funeral (to take to the families or for a luncheon at the church). She even called them funeral potatoes. Her husband would just roll his eyes every time she called the dish that because it was just a fabulously yummy dish. "Can't you call it something else?" he'd ask. She never gave out the recipe, but it sounds like yours is similar. Yum.

I often make the same dish. Here in ranching country, we call them "Branding Party Potatoes". Really good.....and no left overs.
