Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 2
Peel and chop potatoes, place into a large stockpot. Cover with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes. Test a larger piece by piercing with a fork to make sure they're cooked through and tender. Remove pot from heat, drain potatoes and place back in pot.
Step 3
Smash potatoes with the back of a wooden spoon, it's ok if they’re are still chunks. Stir in butter and cubed cream cheese. Keep stirring until completely melted. Add in sour cream, 1 1/2 cups cheddar, 3 sliced green onions, salt, and bacon pieces (reserve 1/4 cup bacon pieces for topping).
Step 4
Spread into a greased 3-quart baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cheddar, bacon pieces, and sliced green onion over top. Bake for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and potatoes are heated through.
