Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1½ inch (4 cm) pieces. Rinse them in a colander under cold water for one minute.
3. Put the potatoes in a large pot, cover with at least an inch of well-salted water, and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally.
4. Once fork-tender, drain the potatoes, return them to the pot and let them sit for a minute to steam off excess water.
5. Add the milk, butter, sour cream or cream cheese, garlic, salt and pepper, and mash to the desired texture. Stir well.
6. Stir in 1 cup (4 oz) of the shredded cheddar until well distributed.
7. Spread the potatoes in a 2 to 2.5 quart casserole dish. Top with the remaining ½ cup (2 oz) of cheddar and the crumbled bacon.
8. Lightly butter a large piece of foil and cover the dish with it, buttered side down. Bake on the centre rack at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes.
9. Remove the foil and bake 15 to 20 minutes more, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
10. Top with chives or scallions and serve warm.
