How to Make Desert Sour Cream Potatoes

  1. Wash and scrub 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
  2. Parboil potatoes in salted water for 10-12 minutes, or until a fork easily pierces them.
  3. Drain potatoes and let them cool completely. This prevents a watery final dish.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Grate the cooled potatoes using a box grater.
  6. In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes with 1 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder.
  7. Stir until well combined.
  8. Transfer the mixture to a greased 8x8 inch baking dish.
  9. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through. Baking time may vary depending on the size of your baking dish.
  10. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
