Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Pierce the potatoes with a fork and bake for 1 hour until soft.
- Let potatoes cool slightly, then slice and scoop the flesh into a large bowl.
- Add butter, sour cream, cream cheese, and milk. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spread a layer of mashed potatoes.
- Sprinkle with cheddar, mozzarella, bacon, and green onions.
- Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, ending with cheese and bacon on top.
- Cover with foil and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 25 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake for 10–15 more minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Let rest 5–10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs.
Notes
Warm milk before adding for fluffier mashed potatoes.
Add garlic powder or smoked paprika to the mash for extra depth.
Can be assembled ahead and baked the next day.
