Yes—it’s that simple! Just pour one easy mixture over raw quartered potatoes in your slow cooker, and walk away. In 6–7 hours, you’ll have creamy, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth potatoes that taste like they’ve been simmered all day—even though you barely lifted a finger.
Perfect for holidays, potlucks, or cozy weeknights.
🥔 The Magic Mixture (3 Ingredients!)
💡 Optional boost: Add 1 packet (1 oz) dry ranch or onion soup mix for extra flavor!
Step-by-Step Instructions (Effortless & Foolproof)
- Prep: Place 2–3 lbs Yukon Gold or red potatoes, quartered, into a 6-quart slow cooker.
- Mix: In a bowl, whisk together cream of chicken soup, melted butter, and milk until smooth.
- Pour: Pour mixture evenly over potatoes. Stir gently to coat.
- Cook:
- LOW: 6–7 hours
- HIGH: 3.5–4 hours
- Serve: Stir gently (optional), then scoop into a bowl. No draining needed!
✅ Pro Tip: For extra creaminess, stir in ½ cup sour cream or shredded cheddar during the last 30 minutes.
Why This Works So Well
- Yukon Golds break down slightly, thickening the sauce naturally.
- Butter + soup = rich, velvety texture without heavy cream.
- No pre-boiling—potatoes cook perfectly tender in their own steam.
