Instructions

Add your potatoes, onion, poblano peppers, and garlic to the slow cooker. You can peel your potatoes, but I like the skin on. Add your seasonings (bay leaf, salt, black & white pepper, cumin, smoked paprika).
If you want to make the soup smoky and spicy, add the chopped chipotle pepper, otherwise continue on. Pour the broth over everything and give it a stir. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8.
When the cooking time is done, the potatoes should be tender. Remove the bay leaf, and using a potato masher, mash the chunks of potato to your desired size. Mash it well for little to no chunks, or choose to leave some potatoes in large chunks, it's up to you.
Add the cubed cream cheese to the slow cooker and stir. Put the lid back on and in about 10-15 minutes, stir the soup until the cream cheese has fully dispersed in the soup. Taste for any needed salt and garnish with a little smoked paprika. Enjoy!
