- 10.5 ounce can of condensed cream of cheese soup
Dairy
- 2 – 8 ounce blocks of cream cheese
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Liquids
- 32 ounces chicken broth
Instructions
- Prepare the ground beef: Add the ground beef to the Crock Pot and spread it out evenly to ensure it cooks thoroughly.
- Add potatoes and seasoning: Peel and cube the Russet potatoes, then add them on top of the beef. Sprinkle the dried onion soup mix evenly over the potatoes for flavor.
- Incorporate cheese soup and cream cheese: Spread the condensed cream of cheese soup over the potatoes. Add the two blocks of cream cheese on top, distributing them evenly for melting.
- Add broth: Pour the chicken broth over the potatoes and cheeses, making sure the potatoes are fully covered with liquid to cook properly.

Notes
- You can use frozen beef for this recipe, but be sure to chop it into smaller pieces about halfway through the cooking process to ensure even cooking.
- Optional: add crumbled bacon to the soup to make a bacon cheeseburger variation.
- Either beef broth or chicken broth can be used in place of chicken broth.
