How to Make Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes
- Boil, peel, and mash 5 lbs russet potatoes until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 8 oz cream cheese (softened), 1 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter (melted), 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder until completely smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold the cream cheese mixture into the mashed potatoes until thoroughly combined. The mixture should be light and fluffy.
