Grease the inside of the crock pot with the butter to prevent sticking.
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until fully browned. Drain any excess grease and set the beef aside.
In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Add the cooked onion and garlic to the ground beef and mix well.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, milk, salt, black pepper, and paprika until smooth. Set aside.
Layer half of the sliced potatoes on the bottom of the crock pot. Spread half of the ground beef mixture over the potatoes. Sprinkle 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top.
Pour half of the soup mixture over the cheese layer, spreading it evenly.
Repeat the layers with the remaining potatoes, ground beef mixture, 1 cup of cheese, and the rest of the soup mixture.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and fully cooked through.
Once cooked, garnish with fresh parsley (if desired) and serve warm.
