1
Boil Potatoes
Peel and chop the potatoes into even chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes or until tender.
2
Drain and Mash
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and return to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

3
Cook Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, remove and drain on a paper towel.
4
Prepare Chives
While the bacon is cooking, chop the chives finely and set aside.

5
Combine Ingredients
In serving bowls, place a generous scoop of the mashed potatoes as the base. Crumble the crispy bacon on top of the mashed potatoes.
6
Add Blue Cheese
Dollop the Duff's blue cheese on top of the bacon. Sprinkle chopped chives over everything for added flavor and garnish.
