How to Make Loaded Mashed Potatoes
- Peel and quarter 2 lbs russet potatoes. Place in a large pot and cover with cold water.
- Bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
- Drain the potatoes thoroughly.
- Return the potatoes to the pot. Add 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup milk, 4 tablespoons butter, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Mash with a potato masher or use an electric mixer on medium-low speed until smooth and creamy.
- Stir in 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon, and 1/2 cup chopped sauteed onions.
- Transfer the mashed potatoes to a greased 3-quart baking dish.
- Top with the remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake, uncovered, at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted and bubbly.
