Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Add ¾ cup salted butter, 1 cup sour cream, 1 cup half and half, ½ teaspoon onion powder, 1 ½ teaspoons Kosher saltand ½ teaspoon pepper.
Smash the potatoes with a potato masher or electric hand mixer until combined and creamy.
Stir in 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese and 1/2 cup bacon crumbles.
Add the potato mixture to a lightly greased 9 x 13 baking dish.
Top the casserole with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese and reserved bacon.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
