Ingredients
- 6 Russed Potatoes large
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Softened
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream
- 1/2 cup Whole Milk
- 1 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 1/2 cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup Bacon Bits
- Chives chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Mashed Potatoes. Peel and chop the potatoes into evenly sized chunks. Boil for 15 minutes, or until fork-tender, then drain and mash with butter, sour cream, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Layer in a Casserole Dish. Spread half of the mashed potatoes into a greased casserole dish.
- Add Toppings. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese, crispy bacon bits, and chopped green onions over the mashed potatoes.
- Repeat Layers. Add the remaining mashed potatoes on top, followed by the rest of the toppings.
- Bake Until Golden and Bubbly. Bake in the oven at 350F for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is golden brown.
- Garnish and Serve. Garnish with additional cheese, chopped chives, and a dollop of sour cream if desired. Serve warm.
