Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into large chunks. Place the potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.
Stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, half of the chopped bacon, and half of the chopped green onions until well combined.
Spread the mashed potato mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese, cooked bacon, parmesan cheese, and green onions evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
