Ingredients
- 12 Yukon Gold Potatoes do not cut or peel
- 4 ounvrd cream cheese
- 8 ounces unsalted butter
- 1 clove garlic pressed or finely chopped (I also use garlic powder)
- 1 teaspoons onion powder
- ½ cup milk warmed
- 1 cups sour cream add more to taste
- ½ teaspoons Lawry's seasoning salt
- ¼ teaspoons salt
- ¼ teaspoons pepper
Instructions
- Scrub your potatoes. Drop into a pot of salted boiling water. Boil them about 30-50 minutes, depending on the size of your potato. You're looking for fork tender.
- Carefully drain them. Allow them to dry slightly but don’t allow them to cool too much. Cut them into 4 smaller pieces.
- Put everything into a huge bowl and then begin to mash them up. You can use a potato masher, but I actually use my handheld mixer with this recipe.
- Now, add your seasonings, the garlic (I used powder for this recipe, but I do use the garlic cloves most of the time), the cream cheese, and the butter. Blend well.
- Now add the warmed milk and sour cream. You can add more milk or sour cream to taste or to add to the creaminess. Blend well. Serve.
