Red Mashed Potato Cups

Need a new side dish? Look no further! We have Red Mashed Potato Cups! Simple and Easy and from the classic mashed potato!

Plus they are mashed potatoes that you can eat with your hands hahaha…. no no no… you don’t scoop them up with your hands and eat them! The “Cups” are made from the Potatoes as well so you can just pick the whole thing up and eat it :)… OK it will make more sense once you see pictures 😉

What you need:

Red Potatoes ( you can probably use other kinds but I used Red)
Butter
Pepper
Salt
Cheese
Olive Oil

What to do:

Preheat oven to 375F.

Wash your potatoes but Don’t peel them!
Slice the Tops and Bottoms from your Potatoes! You want to slice the bottom off just enough so that the potatoes sit up straight when placed on a flat service.

Now with the Top of the potato that you sliced off, take a melon ball scooper and scoop the “meat: from the potato. Don’t scoop all the way through the bottom! And leave a thin wall of potato on the sides. This will create your “cup”

Do this for all your potatoes.

Scoop the “meat” from the potatoes into a separate bowl.

Take your Potato Cups and place them on a baking try lined with aluminum foil. Drizzle them with Olive Oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Bake them at 375 for about 20 minutes. Potato cups should be firm to the touch but soft enough to cut with a fork and bite.

While the cups are baking; take your scoops of potatoes and boil them in boiling water for 12 minutes. Once the scooped potatoes are cooked; drain them and mash them. add salt, pepper and cheese and stir until cheese is melted.

Remove the Cups from the oven.

Take Mashed Potatoes and fill a piping bag with them. Cut the tip from the piping bag and pipe the mashed potatoes into the potato cups.

Sprinkle with Parsley and serve!
