Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, diced onion, salt, and black pepper. Stir together until well blended.
Melt half of the butter (4 tablespoons) in a small saucepan or microwave, and add it to the mixture in the bowl.
Add the frozen hash browns to the bowl and gently stir until the hash browns are evenly coated with the mixture.
Transfer the hash brown mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread out evenly with a spatula.
Melt the remaining butter (4 tablespoons) and mix it with the crushed cornflakes in a small bowl.
Sprinkle the buttered cornflakes evenly over the top of the casserole to create a crispy topping.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
