Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, mix thawed hash browns, melted butter, soup, sour cream, onion, 1½ cups cheese, and pepper until well combined.
- Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup cheese on top.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
- Let cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For best flavor, use a mix of cheeses such as Colby and sharp cheddar.
- If preparing ahead, cover tightly with foil and refrigerate until baking.
- Great as a make-ahead holiday side dish or potluck favorite.
