These potatoes are named after my Aunt Laura, because growing up she made them once and they instantly became a family favorite and whenever my brother or I wanted them, we asked for "Aunt Laura potatoes" and the name stuck. I always requested these potatoes for a special holiday or meal because they were my favorite potatoes.
I had not made these potatoes in several years and decided it was time to make them again. They were just as good as I remember them being and my girls loved them just as much as I did growing up.
These potatoes are super easy to prepare, you don't even have to defrost the hash browns. Just mix all the ingredients together, pour into a lightly greased baking dish and let them bake away.
