Final Assembly: Pour the smooth cream cheese mixture into the crockpot, stirring well to integrate. Sprinkle the remaining cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top. Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for an additional 30 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and the flavors to bind.
Serving: Serve the casserole hot, ideally garnished with sliced green onions if desired, to add both color and a mild, oniony crunch that complements the rich flavors of the dish.
