Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Petite Yukon Gold or FIngerling Potatoes
- 3 Tablespoons Salted Butter * (melted)
- 2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- fresh parsley (chopped)
Garlic Cheddar Sour Cream Dip:
- 8 ounces sour cream
- 3/4 cup cheddar cheese (grated)
- 1 garlic clove (or 1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Start by using petite gold or fingerling potatoes. You want to use small potatoes to make it easy to smash them with the bottom of a glass. If they are too large, they will just fall apart. I prefer yukon gold potatoes because of their creamy texture and thin skins.
- Place the potatoes in a large pot and fill with water. Place on high heat until boiling. Boil for about 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are soft and fork-tender. You want them to be soft enough to smash! The larger the potatoes, the longer the cooking time.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Drain the water and place the potatoes in a colander to allow the steam to release for about 5 minutes. Get a large baking sheet ready. Place the potatoes on the baking sheet and press on each one with the bottom of a glass to "smash" them.
- Drizzle the potatoes with melted salted butter and extra-virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Bake in a 425-degree oven for about 35-45 minutes, depending on the level of desired crispiness. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with garlic cheddar sour cream dip.
Garlic Cheddar Sour Cream Dip:
- In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, cheddar cheese, garlic, and pepper. Top the potatoes with the dip or dip the potatoes into the dip.

Notes
- For extra buttery potatoes, use 4 Tablespoons of butter
