Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until evenly blended.
Fold in the frozen hash brown potatoes and stir until all the potatoes are coated with the creamy mixture.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine the cornflakes cereal with the melted butter, tossing until the cereal is fully coated in butter.
Sprinkle the buttered cornflakes evenly over the top of the hash brown mixture in the baking dish.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Schwarties Hash Browns!
