Ingredients

• 6 large Russet potatoes
• 8 ounces Cream cheese
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese
• 1 stick Butter, melted
• 1 cup Milk
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Green onions, sliced (optional)
• 0.5 cup Bacon, cooked and crumbled (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

Peel the potatoes and cut them into large chunks. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and add a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer the potatoes until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash them until smooth using a potato masher or a hand mixer.

Step 5

Add the cream cheese, sour cream, melted butter, milk, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Mix until fully incorporated and creamy.

Step 6

Fold in 1 cup of the cheddar cheese, along with the green onions and bacon if you're using them.

Step 7

Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly, then top with the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy Mamaw's ultimate comfort food!
