I use cream of chicken soup because I hate mushrooms and I also add a container of sour cream and will get the Southern Style frozen hashbrowns from time to time just for the peppers. My recipe does not feed 48 though and we top ours with corn flakes crushed up or frosted flakes crushed up if you want a bit of sweet.
You're describing the recipe I learned as Mormon Funeral Potatoes:
I have to ask, isn't this just a pared down version of Mormon Funeral Potatoes?
I don't know if it's derived from the Mormon Funeral Potatoes or not but I do know it's good. I read your attachment recipe and the Mormon recipe includes more ingredients and I don't know how I would like corn flakes in the recipe. But corn flakes and Rice Krispies are two of my favorite breakfast cereals.
I have used cream of mushroom soup and then tried the cream of chicken. I do like the chicken soup best. I buy the Southern cut hash browns not the shredded.
The first time I tried it I followed the recipe exactly, except I did cut it and it was delicious as originally posted with only the three ingredients. But then I had to experiment.
I just like anything simple, quick and cheap to prepare ... if it turns out good to eat.
I agree that there are a few versions. I make the Hashbrown Potato Casserole, more like the funeral potato recipe. Hashbrowns, soup, cheese, butter. However you make it, it's awesome. I make it for Easter, with ham, or for any holiday buffet. Everyone loves it.

I’m making this today for a brunch get together, and I will try adding some sour cream. I’ve always used just the three ingredients in the original recipe before.
I don’t think I would care for Frosted Flakes in the recipe though.
These potatoes casseroles are no-fail and addictive!
I make mine to go with the Easter Ham.
Layer hash browns, S&P, sharp cheddar, another layer of all, then pour a half pint whipping cream on top and bake. Simple au gratins. But the family, since tasting daughter's funeral potatoes, has decided they like them better.

I use fresh sliced spuds, pressure cook them, then layer with cheese, seasoning, and evaporated milk. Bake/broil and it's ready in 20 minutes.
I avoid canned soups, too many questionable ingredients.

I learned the recipe from a catholic Mexican-American colleague several years ago. 
But corn flakes and Rice Krispies are two of my favorite breakfast cereals.
