A comforting and creamy potato casserole perfect for any occasion.
Peel and boil the potatoes until tender, then mash them in a large mixing bowl.
Boiling the potatoes with a pinch of salt enhances their natural flavor.
Finely chop the onion and sauté it in a pan until translucent.
Cooking the onion beforehand reduces its sharpness and adds sweetness.
Combine the mashed potatoes, sautéed onion, cream cheese, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and salt in the mixing bowl. Mix until smooth.
Ensure the cream cheese is softened to make mixing easier.
Transfer the mixture to a greased casserole dish and smooth the top.
Greasing the dish prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Dot the top with butter and sprinkle with paprika and parsley.
Using smoked paprika adds a subtle smoky flavor to the dish.
Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 35 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving to set the layers.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy baked potato casserole.
Pair with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
