How to Do It Step by Step
Step 1: Get the oven hot.
- Warm Up the Oven: Warm up your oven to 190°C (375°F).
Step 2: Get the potatoes ready.
Peel and Cut: Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes after peeling them. Put them in a big pot with salty water and boil them. - Get the potatoes ready: For about 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are just soft, boil the potatoes. Make sure you don’t cook them too long; they should still have their shape. Take the potatoes out of the water and set them away.
- Make the creamy mixture in the third step.
- Mix Mix the sour cream, mayonnaise, heavy cream, 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, half of the chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a big bowl. Combine well by mixing.
- Step 4: Put the dish together
- Mix the potatoes and the mixture: Carefully add the cooked potatoes to the creamy sauce, making sure that all of the potatoes are covered.
- Move to a baking dish: Put the potato mixture in a 9×13-inch baking dish that has been oiled. Put little bits of butter on top.
Step 5: Bake - Put the potatoes in the oven: Place the dish in an oven that has already been heated up. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are hot and bubbly and the top is golden brown.
- Add the topping. Take the baking dish out of the oven and sprinkle the top with the last 1/2 cup of chopped cheddar cheese. Put it back in the oven for another 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cheese melts and bubbles.
- Step 6: Add a garnish and serve.
- Add the rest of the chopped green onions on top of the dish after taking it out of the oven for a fresh taste and color boost.
- Serve: Wait a few minutes before putting the Mississippi Mud Potatoes on a plate. This gives the dish a chance to set a bit and the tastes to blend.

- Prepare ahead of time: The dish can be made ahead of time and put in the fridge before it is baked. When you’re ready to serve, bake it as suggested, but if you start it out cold, add an extra 10 to 15 minutes to the baking time.
