This mashed potato recipe was given to me by my Aunt Almedia -- my
husband calls them Kansas Mashed Potatoes since my aunt lives in Kansas.
Kansas Mash Potatoes
5 pound Yukon Golf Potatoes, peeled and quartered
Place potatoes in a large saucepan, and cover with water. Add a little salt and
bring water to a boil over medium heat. Cook until tender but still firm.
Drain and return to stove top over low heat for a minute or two to dry the
potatoes.
Add to potatoes:
8 oz. softened cream cheese
1 cup sour cream
salt and pepper to salt
1/4 c soften butter.
Use a potato masher to mash until smooth.
These potatoes can be made ahead of time and kept warm in a crock
pot, set on low. Just add 1-2 T of additional butter before serving if it seems
dry.
