Preparation

Step 1

Place potatoes in slow cooker, and cover with salted water.

Transfer potatoes to a mixing bowl, and mash with a potato masher until almost smooth.

Add cream cheese, sour cream, butter, milk, salt and pepper. Continue mashing until smooth.

Stir in 1 c. of the cheese and half the bacon.

Return mixture into the slow cooker.

Use a spatula or fork to make an irregular surface.

Place under broiler for 10-15 minutes to melt cheese and brown top. (Note: If you don’t have access to an oven, you can return to the slow cooker instead.  The cheese will melt but will not brown.)

Omitting bacon could make this a delicious vegetarian recipe!

could you boil the potatoes &skip the first part?

You can make this recipe your own Kathy, so people just like the skin from the potato. Please post back and let others know how it turned out. Happy Crocking!

Hi Ashley, I use white potatoes when I make this… but it is really your personal preference. Happy Crocking

HI. How many servings does this recipe make? Thanks

Bree definitely a personal preference. If you add in the beginning I would sauté them a little to brown the chicken up, this will add flavor. Hope this helps! Happy Crocking!

Melisa, for this recipe add the salt per the ingredients 1/2 tsp., and for the water until the potatoes are covered. Thanks for the question!

You can make mashed potatoes for dinner, and make a double batch, use the leftover for this the next day. Great recipe!
