Ingredients
- 3 pounds red potatoes, peeled, washed, quartered
- ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- ½ cup (119 g) heavy whipping cream
- 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 4-5 lices thick-cut bacon, cooked crisp, crumbled
- 1 cup (113 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives, for garnish
- sour cream, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Spray an 8x8-inch (or 9x9-inch) baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
- To a large pot of cold salted water, add potatoes. (Make sure the water covers the potatoes.) Cover the pot and bring to a boil over high heat.
- After the water has come to a boil, uncover and boil over medium-high heat until fork-tender, about 25 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Remove from heat.
- Lightly mash the potatoes. Add the butter, cream, and cream cheese. Mash until creamy.
- Add salt, pepper, bacon (reserving about 2 tablespoons for the topping), and ½ cup of cheese. Stir to combine.
- Transfer into the prepared baking dish. Top with the remaining ½ cup of cheese and the reserved bacon.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is hot and bubbling.
- Serve warm, garnished with chives and a dollop of sour cream.
