These Crispy Loaded Potato Bites have creamy mashed red potatoes, sharp cheddar, and bacon get tucked into flaky phyllo shells for an easy bite-size win.
Preheat the oven to 350° F(190°C). Place the phyllo shells on a baking sheet and set aside.
Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes. Cook in a pot of boiling salted water for 20 minutes or until fork tender. Drain. Once cooled, transfer them to a mixing bowl.
Add the cheddar, cream cheese, butter, salt, garlic powder, and half the bacon to the bowl. Stir, mashing up the potato as you mix. It doesn’t need to be smooth. Divide the potato mixture among the phyllo cups. Bake for 15 minutes.
Top with the remaining bacon bits, sour cream, and chives.
