Ingredients
  

For the Ultimate Mississippi Mud Potato Casserole
  • 4 large russet potatoes peeled and cubed
  • 1 cup sour cream adds creaminess
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese for that cheesy goodness
  • 1/2 cup milk helps to achieve the perfect consistency
  • 1/4 cup butter melted, for richness
  • 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon for a savory crunch
  • 1/4 cup green onions chopped, for a fresh bite
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder enhances flavor
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder complements the garlic
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows adds sweetness
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips for a delightful finish

Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Colander
  • Mixing bowl
  • Potato Masher
  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Spatula
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Boil the cubed russet potatoes in a large pot filled with salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain in a colander and return to the pot.
  2. Step 2: While the potatoes are still warm, add sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, milk, melted butter, crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Mash together until well combined and creamy.
  3. Step 3: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread the mashed potato mixture evenly.
  4. Step 4: Top the potato mixture with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips.
  5. Step 5: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and the casserole is heated through.
  6. Step 6: Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
