Let’s Make it Together

Prep Those Potatoes: Start by peeling and chopping your potatoes into even chunks. Rinse them under cold water until clear to remove excess starch.

Boil Until Tender: Place the chopped potatoes in a large pot covered with water. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until fork-tender—about 15 minutes should do!

Drain and Mash: Drain the cooked potatoes thoroughly in a colander. Return them to the pot and mash them until smooth, adding butter as you go for extra creaminess.

Add Cream and Cheese: Pour in heavy cream while stirring until combined smoothly. Fold in shredded cheddar cheese until melted and evenly distributed throughout.

Season Perfectly: Sprinkle garlic powder, salt, and pepper into your mixture. Taste test; adjust seasoning if necessary—this is your moment!

Bake Until Golden Brown: Transfer your potato mix into a greased baking dish. Top with more cheese if you’re feeling adventurous! Bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden.

Now you have your Party Potatoes ready to impress! Serve hot with freshly chopped chives or green onions on top for added flair. Trust me; these spuds will steal the show at any gathering! For more inspiration, check out this Southern Maple Sweet Potato Casserole recipe.
