Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs creamer potatoes
  • 1/2 cup buffalo hot sauce
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/3 cup blue cheese crumbles
  • 1-2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1 tablespoon chives, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • thinly sliced radishes or jalapeños to garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450° F and bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the creamer potatoes to the pot and boil for 10-15 minutes or until tender enough to poke with a fork.
  • Drain the potatoes and place them on a lightly greased baking sheet. Using the bottom of a drinking glass with a flat bottom, gently smash the potatoes. Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and sprinkle a little bit of salt and pepper over them. Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping them about 1/3 of the way through. The potatoes should be golden brown when you remove them.
  • Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the hot sauce over the potatoes, then drizzle the ranch dressing over top. Sprinkle the blue cheese, celery, and chives over the potatoes and serve immediately.
