• Mash cooked potatoes using a potato masher in a bowl. Add 1/4 cup milk, salt, and pepper to taste. Depending on consistency, add more butter or milk. Stir in sour cream and 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese; mix well. Transfer mixture to prepared casserole dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 20 minutes. Top with remaining Cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chives. Bake until cheese has melted, about 5 minutes.
