Super creamy mashed potatoes for dinner any day of the week! Made with plenty of butter and cream.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 6 servings
Course: Side Dish
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 lbs Russet Potatoes Peeled and Cubed
  • 1-2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tsp Pepper Freshly Cracked
  • 1 1/2 Cups Salted Butter Cubed
  • 1/4 Cup Heavy Cream

Method
 

  1. Place cubed potatoes in a pot and cover with water.
  2. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium and gently boil for 15-20 minutes. You want the potatoes to be fork tender.
  3. Drain potatoes and let them sit in the colander for 2 minutes. This helps let some of that steam escape and prevent your potatoes from being to watery.
  4. Pour your potatoes into the bowl of a large stand mixer and add in salt, pepper, and half of the butter.
  5. Using the whisk attachment, turn the mixer on medium low and whip together.
  6. Start adding in the remaining butter a little at time and heavy cream until potatoes are creamy and to desired creaminess.
  7. Taste for seasonings and serve immediately.
