1 potato masher
1 pot
1 stove
- 10/12 potatoes medium
- 1 large onion
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 stick butter
- 1 can celery soup
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- TT salt
- TT pepper
- TT cheddar cheese grated
- TT bacon bits
- TT chives
Using a large saucepan or pot, pour in some water (it needs to be enough to cover the potatoes and onions) and bring to a boil.
Once boiling, set the heat to medium and add both the onions and potatoes.
Cover and let it boil for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are completely cooked. To check this, pierce the potato with a fork. If it enters without resistance you can remove it from the heat immediately.
Drain the excess water from the potatoes and onion, use a potato masher to break down the potatoes to the desired texture. Don’t go too crazy here, a little bit of texture in your soup is a good thing!
Add the milk and cream cheese to the potatoes and onions and return to the heat briefly.
Remove from the heat after a few seconds and stir until the cream cheese has completely melted.
Now we can add all our toppings. If you are making it exactly like Rafferty's you can add shredded cheese, bacon bits, and chives.
