Steps:
- Cut potatoes into bite size pieces. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then cook for 20 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside to cool.
- Add 1 cup of water and trivet to the Instant Pot. Place whole potatoes in the pot atop the trivet. Most should fit in a 6 quart or larger pot, but do not exceed the fill line. Prick potatoes with a sharp knife. Set pressure to manual for 20 minutes, then let them naturally release. Allow to cool slightly before cutting into bite size pieces.
- In a medium sized bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, sugar, apple cider vinegar, yellow mustard, dried minced onion. Stir until all ingredients are combined, then fold into the diced potatoes, gently folding until incorporated.
- Mixture will be very creamy but will soak into the potatoes as it sits.
- Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Stir before serving and top with hard boiled egg slices and paprika.

CREAMY POTATO SALAD
Have you ever posted a recipe and just love reading the reviews for it? This is my signature potato salad. Whenever there is a pot luck function at work, I am TOLD that I have to bring the potato salad. No one else is allowed to and I am never given a choice. Thank you everyone who ever tried this potato salad and for leaving such glowing reviews for it. You all have made me look so good. I personally can not stand eggs or raw onions, so I leave them out but I know most people don't think a potato salad is complete without them. Thanks again for so many wonderful reviews. (psssst....check out my recipe #123107 as well. It shares the dressing with this recipe but tastes much much different because of the different ingredients) Please see Recipe #242966 for bacon bit tips.
