This new twist on an old favorite is great for company because it makes plenty, assures Debra Francis of Nathalie, Virginia. The original recipe called for baked potatoes, but boiling them is quicker.
Ingredients:
8 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 cup sour cream
1/3 cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
2 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
1 teaspoon minced chives, optional
Directions:
1. Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Drain and mash. Add sour cream, butter, salt and pepper; beat until smooth and fluffy.
2. Transfer to a greased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese, bacon and chives if desired. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 20 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted. Yield: 8-10 servings.
