These are delicious. I had already started cooking the potatoes when I realized it said head of garlic roasted and I quickly had to look up a recipe to roast garlic but was relatively easy to do and I learned something new. I couldn't find white cheddar so I used sharp yellow cheddar. I used yukon gold potatoes. Made for 1,2,3, hit wonders tag 2007

Loaded is right! I should have just slathered these potatoes directly on to my thighs, because that's where they're headed. I don't eat bacon so I just left it out and added some smoked mozzarella cheese instead. This is serious comfort food!

Wonderful potatoes but definitely not diet friendly! I had a five pound bag of Idahos that I used and boiled with minced garlic since I didnt have a head of garlic. Didnt need to add much milk as the potatoes were pretty creamy after the stick of butter and 8 ounces of sour cream. I only added 1/2 pound of bacon because I was worried about the saltiness but a whole pound could have been used. Couldnt find white cheddar at the store so I used yellow mild cheddar and that worked great but my potatoes did have a tinge of color. This whipped up very creamy and tasted so good! I think these would be great to make earlier in the day and let set in the refrigerator for awhile to let the flavors meld together nicely. Thank you Sweetlady and Paula Deen!!

Yummy! The ingredients listed told me it would be good, but WOW, this is sooooooo wonderful. I have to make a smaller batch, else I'll never get back into my jeans! Thanks SweetsLady.

So DELICIOUS! Made for a crowd and everyone loved them! I just realized I did not add the grated cheese but they were still wonderful! Thank you for a great recipe, SweetsLady! Made for the Think Pink Tag Game In Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness, October 2008.

Made these for Thanksgiving dinner. Very good, but the sharp white cheddar cheese added a little more tanginess than what we're used to. Next time I may try Mirj's idea of using smoked mozzarella instead. Made for PRMR tag game.

I love mashed potatoes and so does DH and the garlic and cheese in it was wonderful. I didn't have bacon (just me) so I used 1/4 tsp of smoked barbecue sauce in it just to give it a hint of something like smoked bacon in it. Works for me! Thanks!

I made this for my family for Thanksgiving this year. For dinner it was just my husband and I and my uncle. My husband was standing over me while I was putting all the ingredients together and he couldn't wait until I mixed everything together. He just loved it and wants me to put it on our menu for Christmas. I took some to my aunt to let her taste it and she said "I'm buying 2 ten bags of potatoes so you can make this for me for Christmas." My uncle said "these are so good, you don't need any gravy." I subsituted the sour cream for light sour cream. And instead of using the white cheddar cheese I used the Italian 4 cheeses. For bacon I used a whole pack of Turkey bacon by butter ball and a half pack of honey sugar cured bacon. Yummmy!
