1
Peel and Cut Potatoes
Peel the Russet potatoes, then cut them into quarters to ensure even cooking.
2
Boil Potatoes
Place the cut potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender.

3
Drain and Mash
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and return to the pot. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes until smooth.
4
Add Dairy Ingredients
Mix in the unsalted butter, whole milk, and cream cheese until well combined and creamy.

5
Mix in Seasonings
Stir in the black pepper to taste. Adjust salt if necessary.
6
Top with Cheese and Bacon
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and bacon bits on top.
