Add cheese:
Mix in 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese.
Spread and top:
Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup cheese on top.
For an extra crunch, combine crushed cornflakes (or crackers) with 2 tablespoons melted butter and sprinkle over the top.
Bake:
Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes, until bubbly and golden brown.
