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 sure what I did wrong, but my mashed potatoes turned out lumpy. I think I didn't mash them long enough.

These mashed potatoes were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasonings next time.

I'm a big fan of horseradish, so I was excited to try these mashed potatoes. They didn't disappoint! The horseradish flavor was strong and bold, just the way I like it.

These mashed potatoes are so creamy and decadent. I love that I can make them in the slow cooker so I don't have to babysit them on the stove.

I added some chopped bacon to these mashed potatoes and they were amazing. It's a great way to add extra flavor and texture.

I was short on time, so I used instant mashed potatoes instead of fresh. They still turned out great and everyone enjoyed them.

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

I made these mashed potatoes for a family gathering and everyone loved them. They were creamy, cheesy, and had just the right amount of horseradish flavor. I will definitely be making them again.

I'm not a huge fan of horseradish, but these mashed potatoes were surprisingly delicious. The horseradish flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the other flavors.

These slow cooker cheddar and horseradish mashed potatoes were a hit at my last dinner party. The horseradish added a nice kick to the creamy potatoes, and the cheddar cheese gave them a rich and flavorful taste.
