In a large crock pot, add the frozen shredded hash browns, sliced kielbasa, chicken broth, finely chopped onion, and minced garlic.
Add the can of cream of chicken soup, salt, and ground black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.

About 30 minutes before the cook time ends, add the cubed cream cheese, heavy cream, and shredded cheddar cheese to the crock pot.
