Prepare Potatoes: Begin by cooking the potatoes with their skins on until they are tender. This can be done by boiling or baking them, depending on your preference. Once cooked, allow them to cool slightly.

Prepare Sour Cream Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, ranch salad dressing, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

-
Prepare Topping: In a separate bowl, mix together the remaining shredded cheddar cheese, corn flakes, and melted butter until crumbly. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the potato mixture in the baking pan.
-
Bake: Place the assembled casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is heated through.
