Instructions
- Spray inside of a 6-quart slow cooker with no-stick cooking spray. Add potatoes, stock, and bay leaves. Cover.
- Cook for 4 hours on HIGH or until potatoes are tender, stirring after each hour. Remove bay leaves. Stir in butter, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cover. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- Beat potatoes with an electric mixer on medium-high speed or mash with a potato masher, gradually adding milk, until smooth (add up to 1 cup for creamier mashed potatoes). Stir in parsley. Top with additional butter, if desired. Serve with McCormick Brown Gravy or Perfect Brown Gravy.
