Slow-Cooker Cheddar and Horseradish Mashed Potatoes image

Making mashed potatoes in a slow cooker not only saves precious stovetop space, but also yields uber-tasty spuds: Since you're not boiling the potatoes in lots of water, you don't lose any of that rich potato-y flavor.

Time 4h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 pounds medium russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 to 2 cups milk, warm
1 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar
1/3 to 1/2 cup prepared horseradish
2 tablespoons sliced fresh chives

Steps:

  • Toss the potatoes, butter, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper together in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add 1 cup of water, and cook, covered, on high until the potatoes are tender, about 4 hours. (They may have browned lightly in spots, but that is OK.)
  • Add the sour cream and 1 1/2 cups of the warm milk to the potatoes, and smash them with a potato masher until they are mostly smooth. If they need to be thinned out, stir in the remaining 1/2 cup warm milk. Add most the Cheddar and all the horseradish, and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with the remaining Cheddar and the chives.

I'm not a big fan of horseradish, but I still really enjoyed these mashed potatoes. The cheddar cheese and butter mellowed out the horseradish flavor.

These mashed potatoes are perfect for a party or potluck. They are easy to make ahead of time and can be reheated in the slow cooker.

I love the slow cooker method for making mashed potatoes. It's so easy and convenient. I can just set it and forget it.

These mashed potatoes are a great way to use up leftover cheddar cheese. I always have some on hand, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.

I was disappointed with these mashed potatoes. They were bland and lacked flavor. I won't be making them again.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try using less horseradish next time.

I love how easy these mashed potatoes are to make. I just throw everything in the slow cooker and let it do its thing. They always turn out perfect!

These mashed potatoes were a hit at our holiday dinner! They were creamy, cheesy, and had just the right amount of horseradish. I will definitely be making them again.
