Step 4 — Transfer to the Baking Dish

Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Pour the casserole mixture into the dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 5 — Make the Crispy Topping

In a small bowl, mix:

• Crushed cornflakes (or crushed Ritz crackers)
• Melted butter

This will form a golden, crunchy layer that contrasts perfectly with the creamy casserole underneath.

Sprinkle the topping evenly across the entire casserole.

Step 6 — Bake

Place the dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C).

Bake 45–55 minutes, or until:

• The casserole is bubbly around the edges
• The top is golden brown and crispy

Step 7 — Rest and Serve

Let the casserole sit for about 10 minutes before serving.
This allows it to set slightly and makes scooping easier.

Serve with a fresh green salad, steamed veggies, or even on its own—it’s that satisfying!
