Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Step 3
Fold in frozen hash brown potatoes, half of the shredded cheddar cheese, half of the crumbled bacon, and half of the sliced green onions. Mix until everything is evenly coated and distributed.
Step 4
Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish and spread it out in an even layer.
Step 5
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Step 6
Drizzle the melted butter over the top to aid in browning.
Step 7
Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Step 8
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and sprinkle the remaining crumbled bacon over the top. Continue baking, uncovered, for an additional 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges are golden brown.
Step 9
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Step 10
Garnish with the remaining green onions before serving. Serve hot and enjoy!
