Potato Casserole (AKA Funeral Potatoes)

6 large potatoes, cooked, peeled and grated.  Can use a large bag of frozen hash browns

½ pint sour cream

1/3 cup chopped onions

¼ cup melted butter

1 can cream of chicken soup

½ cup grated cheese

 Put grated potatoes in bottom of 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan.

Mix next 6 ingredients and pour over potatoes.

Crush cornflakes to make 2 cups and mix with ½ cup melted butter.  Sprinkle over top.  Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.

Variation:  Terri uses cream of mushroom soup instead of chicken.  She doubles the sour cream and soup.  (The potatoes absorb a lot)
