Difficulty:

★☆☆


A must for big family dinners. My momma knows my other big family potato option!!! The best part is that Bennett always peels my potatoes for me.

Ingredients

  1. 8 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
  2. 1 cup sour cream
  3. 6 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
  4. 1/2 cup milk
  5. 3 Tbs onion salt
  6. Salt & Pepper
For Herb Encrusted Stained Glass Potato Chip:
  1. Russet Potato, unpeeled, thinly sliced
  2. Fresh Italian Parsley leaves
  3. 1/4 tsp butter

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400°.

Lightly butter 9 x 14 oval baking dish.

In a mixer add drained potatoes, sour cream, cream cheese, 5 Tbs butter, milk, onion salt, and Salt & Pepper. Put in baking dish, dot with remaining butter.

Bake until heated through and lightly brown, about 30 minutes. This can be prepared up to 2 days ahead.

For Herb Encrusted Chip, put a parsley leaf between two slices of potato, smoother over with your finger removing any air pockets. Melt butter in a skillet over medium head, sauté slices until golden.

Serve on top of individual servings. For best results do not make chip ahead as it will turn soggy and when re-toasted becomes too brown.
