How to Make Crock Pot Crack Potato Soup

  • Start by dicing the potatoes into small, bite-sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly. Cube the cream cheese and set aside the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese for later.
  • In your Crock Pot, add the diced potatoes, cream of chicken soup, cubed cream cheese, chicken broth, and milk (or heavy cream). Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper, then stir everything together until thoroughly combined.
  • Cover the Crock Pot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The potatoes should be tender and the soup warm when done. Stir occasionally if you can, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
  • Once the potatoes are tender, use a potato masher or a fork to mash them slightly. Aim for a mix of smooth and chunky textures to keep a delightful thickness in your soup.
  • Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon. Allow the cheese to melt into the soup fully while stirring, creating a creamy, cheesy goodness that's irresistible.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls and top with extra cheese, more bacon, and sliced green onions for a burst of color and flavor. Serve hot and enjoy every comforting bite!

Notes

For a luxurious finish, drizzle with a touch of heavy cream before serving.
