Corn Chowder

2 Tbsp butter
1/2 cup onion, chopped
6-8 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 pound hash browns
2 cans creamed corn
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups milk
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 cup shredded cheese

Sauted onion in butter while cooking bacon in separate pan. Once onion is tender, add hash browns and cook 5 minutes, until tender. Add crumbled bacon. Stir in corn, broth, milk, salt and pepper. Heat on medium heat until boiling. Reduce heat and simmer 10-15 minutes. Stir in cheese very last, until melted and mixed through. May add a dollop or two of sour cream for taste.
