Creamy Crock-Pot Potatoes

CREAMY CROCK-POT POTATOES

What you need:

2 lbs. red potatoes (I've used 6-7 russets and liked that too)
2 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. flour
1 cup milk, or half & half
1 pkg. ranch salad dressing mix

How you do it:

Cut potatoes (quarter red potatoes, cut into bite-size for russets). Place potatoes in crock-pot. Melt butter in small saucepan. Add flour and make into a roux (cook until bubbly, stirring constantly). Pour in milk (or half & half), and whisk together until sauce is thickened. Add cream cheese, and ranch dressing mix. Pour over potatoes and stir together. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until potatoes are soft.
