Preparation

Step 1


Directions


1.Preheat the oven to 400° F. Grease 9" x 13" with butter or cooking spray.


2.Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch pieces. Cook the potatoes in a large pot of well salted boiling water until they are soft and tender. This should be about 10-15 minutes, depending on the size and type of potato.


3.Drain the potatoes and place in a large bowl or back into the same pot. Add sour cream, milk and melted butter. Mash the potatoes to your desired texture.


4.Mix in the cheese, reserving about 1/4 cup of the parmesan for topping. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese and bread crumbs over the mashed potatoes.


5.Bake, uncovered, until the cheese/bread crumb topping is golden brown, about 20 minutes.
