Ingredients

1 cup Dried minced onion
0.25 cup Onion powder
2 tsp Garlic powder
2 tsp Dried parsley
2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Paprika (Smoked paprika was used.)
1 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Celery seed
8 oz Cream cheese (One block; heated briefly in the microwave to soften.)
0.25 cup Water (Start with this amount when stirring into the cream cheese.)
0.25 cup Homemade French onion soup mix (Use from the mix above; about one packet's worth was used for the potatoes.)
4 Russet potatoes (Three medium potatoes and one small potato; peeled and diced or cubed.)
1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese (A little less than a cup; shredded or otherwise ready to top the potatoes.)

Steps

1
Combine the dried minced onion, onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, salt, paprika, black pepper, and celery seed in a bowl or jar to make the dry mix. The creator prefers smoked paprika. The batch makes about seven packet-equivalents; store the unused mix in a jar in the pantry.
2
For general use, substitute 3 tablespoons of the mix for one packet of soup mix. To make the creator's onion dip, stir 3 tablespoons into 16 ounces (2 cups) of sour cream. For broth, the transcript mentions about 4 cups of water but repeats and garbles the mix amount; see notes.
3
Heat the 8-ounce block of cream cheese briefly in the microwave if it has not been softened ahead of time.
4
Stir 1/4 cup water and 1/4 cup of the dry mix into the softened cream cheese, starting with those amounts to check the flavor.
5
Peel and dice or cube three medium russet potatoes and one small potato.
6
Add the cream-cheese mixture to the potatoes in dollops, then stir until the potatoes are evenly coated.
7
Transfer the coated potatoes to an oven-safe skillet. Bake in an oven preheated to 375°F until the potatoes are tender; the creator reports about 45 minutes.
8
Top the baked potatoes with a little less than 1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese.
9
Put the skillet under the broiler for about 1 minute, then serve.

Notes

The transcript's broth guidance is garbled: it says about 4 cups of water, then repeats “about three tablespoons of water” twice before referring to a packet or 3 tablespoons. No broth ratio is confidently extractable. The recipe mix is also described as useful in dips, casseroles, and roasts. The transcript does not specify an exact serving yield for the potato dish.
