In a sauce pan, add in the butter and melt over medium heat. Once melted, add in the onion and saute until it starts to brown. Sprinkle in the flour and continuously stir until well combined and the mixture turns a deep golden color.
Add chicken broth, heavy cream, and sour cream. Stir until all ingredients are smooth and lower the heat to a simmer for a few minutes. Add in garlic, parsley, hot sauce, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat.
Potato Casserole
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9x13 or 3-quart baking dish.
Use a grater or food processor to grate your potatoes. Rinse the grated potatoes in a colander and squeeze out any excess moisture. Move them into a large mixing bowl.
In the large mixing bowl, combine grated potatoes and sauce mixture. Stir gently. Add in 1/2 cup cheese.
Spread out into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese and crushed corn flakes on top. Drizzle melted butter on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, until potatoes are tender. Serve hot.
