Ingredients
- 6 medium Russet potatoes
- 1.5 cups Sour cream
- 1 can Cream of chicken soup
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1.5 cups Cheese Nip crackers
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
Step 4
Add the drained potatoes to the mixing bowl and gently fold them into the creamy mixture, being careful not to mash the potatoes too much.
Step 5
Transfer the potato mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 6
In a small bowl, crush the Cheese Nip crackers until they form coarse crumbs. Melt the butter and pour it over the crushed crackers, mixing until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Step 7
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the casserole, then top with the crushed Cheese Nip cracker mixture.
Step 8
Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly.
Step 9
Let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
