Notes

Using cream of chicken soup will yield the best flavor, but you can substitute cream of mushroom or even cream of celery if that's what you already have on hand.
Even if you love miracle whip, I highly recommend using real mayonnaise for this recipe.
Don't like corn flake cereal? Substitute an alternative like crushed ritz crackers, panko bread crumbs, fried onions or even lightly crushed potato chips. Prepare them the same as if you were using the cereal for topping.
