Begin by spraying your crockpot with non-stick cooking spray to ensure an easy cleanup.
In a large bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, half of the cheddar, sour cream, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
Stir in the frozen potatoes, ensuring they are evenly coated with the creamy mixture.
Transfer the mixture to the crockpot and spread it out evenly.
Cook on low for 5-6 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is bubbly.
About 30 minutes before serving, melt the butter in a small bowl. Stir in the crushed cornflakes until they are well-coated.
Sprinkle the rest of the cheese following by the cornflake topping over the potatoes in the crockpot. Cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes.
Serve hot.
