This recipe saved me! Was making an impromtu Thanksgiving dinner for my family...my parents were moving the next day and no one wanted to take the time to make the traditional meal...so I offered. I made this the night before, stuck it in the crockpot and refrigerated overnight. Then about 5 hours before we were to eat, I put it on low. By meal time the potatoes were perfect! Don't think anyone would have known the difference, if I hadn't told them.

Made this for Thanksgiving and they really came out great. I followed the recipe with the exception that I did not put them in the oven. I put them in my crockpot, on low, for about four hours and they came out great. Like that I was able to do this ahead of time and it freed up some of my time to get other last minute things done...Will make them again at Christmas time! Thanks for sharing.

I can't believe I have never rated this. I have been using it for years now. These are the most delicious and rich potatos, omygosh, I can't say enough! I have occasionally topped with crispy bacon bits... even more decadent. I am making them again for Thanksgiving. These are my absolute favorite!

I continue to make this recipe for every major holiday, and it's a winner with my family. And it's so easy to make; once you've made it a few times it's a breeze. I first added this to my recipe box on all recipes in 2001 and make it every single year.

I always make these for Thanksgiving. Its great because it saves me a lot of time making them early!

Fabulous and what a time saver!

it was great and worked wonderful in the crockpot. Cooked it long and the bottom got a light brown, which was a hit with my Mother in law. All around a crowd pleaser.

Really great recipe. I liked that I could make it the day before so all I had to do the next day was the turkey. Thanks for a great recipe!

I use this All the time. People always rave how good they are. They save me tons of time, so that I may visit with my guests

Very good! I have made enough to make for quite a few meals this week!!

This recipe is so yummy and it was great making it the night before! I did change it a bit. I used 8 ounces of plain cream cheese instead of 6 and left out onion powder and used 1 tablespoon of garlic powder. I also left the milk out. I put the whipped potatoes in a 9x13 pan and stuck it in the fridge. The next day I poked holes in the potatoes with a fork and poured 1/4 cup of milk over them. I baked them at 350 for 40 minutes. The family loved them

These potatoes were a hit with my family. They rated them a "10". I loved being able to make ahead and heat later. Thanks. We will make these again and again.

Really, really good stuff! I didn't have onion salt so I used 1 1/4 t onion powder and 3/4 t salt and it tasted fine. Also threw in about a teaspoon of garlic powder as I am incapable of cooking without it. I froze the potatoes in individual-size servings so that they're easier to deal with later. I've heated them both in the oven and the microwave - while the oven makes a slightly thicker casserole and is more evenly heated, they do fine in the microwave with a little extra milk and it's so much easier. Bacon bits and sharp Cheddar on top make for awesome comfort food. These potatoes will definitely make an appearance at the next family dinner.

Very good! I made a big batch and froze two additional portions for dinners.

Delicious! I cooked them the night before (left out the sour cream as I don't like it). Kept them in the pot I mashed them in and the next day added a stick of butter to them as I simmered them on low. This is a keeper.

Tendency to be gummy - not better than regular mashed potatoes.
