Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup bacon bits (optional)
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or non-stick spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil or non-stick spray.
Peel the potatoes and cut them into equal-sized chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with water.
Boil the potatoes over medium-high heat until soft and fork-tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes thoroughly and return them to the pot. Use a potato masher or a hand mixer to mash them until smooth.
Add the butter, heavy cream, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Mix until well combined.
Stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup of the parmesan cheese. If using bacon bits, fold those into the mixture as well.
Transfer the mashed potato mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Top with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese and parmesan cheese, creating an even layer across the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
