Ingredients

  • 6 medium baked potatoes or boiled potatoes, *see notes
  • ¼ cup salted butter
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ⅔ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup milk or cream, warmed
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 green onions thinly sliced
  • 10 slices Bacon cooked and crumbled
  • salt and black pepper to taste
Toppings
  • 1 green onion thinly sliced
  • 2 slices Bacon cooked and crumbled
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. If using baked Russet potatoes, cut them in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scoop the potato flesh into a bowl.
  3. Mash the warm baked potatoes or boiled potatoes with a potato masher. Add butter,  cream cheese, and sour cream. Continue mashing, adding milk/cream a little at a time until the potatoes have a creamy consistency.
  4. Stir in remaining ingredients (except toppings) and spread into a 2 quart casserole dish.
  5. Sprinkle with toppings and bake for 25-30 minutes or until cheese is melted and potatoes are hot.

Notes

  • I reserve the potato skins by freezing them. I bake them into potato skins for snacking.
  • To Bake Potatoes (recommended for Russet or baking potatoes): Preheat the oven to 425°F. Scrub the potatoes and poke each potato with a fork 5-6 times. Place them directly on the middle rack of the oven. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until tender when poked with a fork. Remove from the oven and let cool until the potatoes are easy to handle.
  • To Boil Potatoes (recommended for red or yellow potatoes): Wash 4 lbs yellow or red-skinned potatoes.  Peel about ⅔ of the skin, (leaving some on the potatoes) and chop into large chunks. Boil the potatoes and a large pot of water until potatoes are fork-tender (about 15 minutes). Drain well.
