Spray the inside of your crockpot with non-stick cooking spray or line it with a slow cooker liner for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, melted butter, diced onion, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until smooth.
Add the frozen diced hash brown potatoes to the bowl and stir until the potatoes are evenly coated with the mixture.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, reserving 1/2 cup for topping later.
Optional: Stir in crispy bacon bits for added flavor.
Pour the potato mixture into the prepared crockpot and spread it out evenly.
Cover and cook on low heat for 4 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the mixture is bubbly.
During the last 15 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the reserved cheddar cheese over the top and cover again to allow the cheese to melt.
Once done, sprinkle with optional chopped fresh parsley for garnish before serving.
Serve hot as a delicious side dish and enjoy!
