Make-Ahead Potatoes Recipe

Make-Ahead Potatoes Recipe

  • 10 large potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 6 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 2 tablespoons dried minced onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Paprika
  1. Place potatoes in a Dutch oven or large kettle; cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 20-25 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
  2. Drain potatoes and place in a bowl; mash. Add sour cream, cream cheese, 4 tablespoons butter, onion and salt; stir until smooth and the cream cheese and butter are melted. Spread in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish.
  3. Melt the remaining butter; drizzle over the potatoes. Sprinkle with paprika. Refrigerate or bake immediately, covered, at 350 degrees F for 40 minutes; uncover and bake 20 minutes longer. If potatoes are made ahead and refrigerated, let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
