  • Ingredients

  • 3 pounds potatoes (about 9 medium), peeled and cubed

  • 6 bacon strips, chopped

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

  • 1/2 cup sour cream

  • 1/2 cup butter, cubed

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 3 green onions, chopped

  • Directions

  • Place potatoes in a Dutch oven; add water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook, uncovered, 10-15 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels with a slotted spoon; drain. Drain potatoes; return to pan. Mash potatoes, gradually adding cream cheese, sour cream and butter. Stir in milk and seasonings. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish; sprinkle with cheese, green onions and bacon. Refrigerate, covered, up to 1 day. Preheat oven to 350°. Remove potatoes from refrigerator and let stand while oven heats. Bake, covered, about 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 10 minutes more, or until heated through.
