I’m planning on making this later today. If indeed using leftover baked potatoes, do I need to warm them so that the butter and sour cream melt into the potato’s?

In reply to Lynx. I always bake extra potatoes and this casserole is my go to next day. It’s delicious. I either roughly mash or thick slice them

In reply to Lynx. There's no need to bake the potatoes fresh. It's meant for exactly what you said and leftover potatoes can be used with no changes to the recipes. We included steps for baking for people who might need them. All cold leftover spuds are welcome here!

Disappointed – I thought that this recipe was for baked potatoes that you had leftover from another meal, but baked potatoes are part of the ingredients and steps. Since you have to bake potatoes first for an hour, and then the casserole for 30 minutes, I don’t see how the time for this recipe is 1.5 hours – closer to 2-2.5 when all is done.

In reply to Shela. Shela I've never frozen it so I can't say for sure but I think it would probably be fine. --Rachel

Does this casserole freeze well? I’m assuming you would allow it to defrost and then bake at 350 for the 22-27 minutes?

This was SO easy, and surprisingly tasty! My husband, who says that most casseroles give him hives (haha), loved it– he kept sneaking bites out of the dish after dinner while we were cleaning up! It seems quite flexible, I just eyeballed the ratio of butter/milk/sour cream to the leftover potatoes I had until the texture looked like the photos and it came out perfect. I was even able to combine 2 different leftover potato dishes (regular baked jacket potatoes and smashed sheet-tray roasted small potatoes) with very different textures, and it came together beautifully. I am glad I chopped up the skins to include, it improved the texture. This recipe is a keeper and will be a great quick addition to a busy weeknight meal.
