1
Boil the Potatoes
Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into quarters. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
2
Drain and Mash
Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander. Return them to the pot and mash with a potato masher until smooth.
3
Add Butter and Milk
Add the butter and milk to the mashed potatoes. Stir until well combined and creamy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

4
Prepare the Toppings
In a small bowl, mix the chopped green onions, shredded cheddar cheese, and bacon bits together.
5
Serve
Scoop the mashed potato mixture into bowls or cups. Top with the mixed toppings and a dollop of sour cream. Serve hot.
