  • Step 2

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a glass baking dish.

  • Step 3

    Combine milk, cream cheese, 1/3 cup green onions, egg, butter, garlic, and salt in a bowl. Pour onto the prepared potatoes. Mash together until mixture is smooth. Spoon into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and remaining green onions.

  • Step 4

    Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 40 minutes.

  • Cook's Notes:

    You can use plain or herbed cream cheese.

    Chives can be substituted for the green onions.

    To make ahead, cool, cover, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours; you will need to increase baking time to 55 minutes.
