Loaded Mashed Potatoes

"This is like the best parts of a loaded baked potato and traditional mashed potatoes all rolled into one. For extra fun, take your leftovers, add some milk or cream, reheat, and you've got a kickin' loaded potato soup!"

Ingredients :

4 slices bacon, or more to taste
3 pounds potatoes, or more to taste, peeled and cut into chunks
1/2 cup butter
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 chopped fresh chives (optional)
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions :

Prep : 15M	Cook : 8M	Ready in : 45M

Place the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels.
Place potatoes into a large pot of lightly salted water; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes and return them to the pot.
Mash butter into the potatoes with a potato masher or electric hand mixer until melted completely into the potatoes; add sour cream and continue to beat until combined. Crumble bacon into the potato mixture; add Cheddar cheese and chives and stir. Season potatoes with salt and pepper.
