How to Make Baked Sweet And Savory Mashed Potatoes

  1. Peel and chop 2 lbs russet potatoes and 1 lb sweet potatoes into roughly 1-inch pieces.
  2. In a large Dutch oven, combine potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and enough water to cover.
  3. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
  4. Drain the potatoes thoroughly.
  5. Return the potatoes to the Dutch oven. Add 4 ounces cream cheese, and 1/4 cup milk or cream.
  6. Mash until smooth using a potato masher or electric mixer.
  7. Stir in 4 slices cooked and crumbled bacon, 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and the remaining 2 teaspoons salt.
  8. Spoon the mixture into a lightly greased 11x7-inch baking dish.
  9. Bake, uncovered, at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through.
  10. Garnish with extra crumbled bacon and green onions, if desired.
