Ingredients
  

Potatoes
  • 3 pounds Russet potatoes Peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
Sauce Ingredients
  • 1 cup Butter Melted
  • 1 can Cream of mushroom soup 10.5 ounce can

  • 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper

Equipment

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, cream of mushroom soup, milk, cheddar cheese, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.
  4. Pour the sauce mixture over the potatoes in the mixing bowl. Toss gently until all the potatoes are evenly coated.
  5. Transfer the coated potatoes into the prepared baking dish, spreading them into an even layer.

Notes

You can add a sprinkle of extra cheese on top during the last 10 minutes of baking for a crispier top layer.
