What’s the Ingredient That Will Transform Your Mashed Potatoes?

1. Peel the potatoes (optional for Yukon Gold if you like a rustic texture).
2. Cut them into evenly-sized chunks, about 1½ inches wide. This helps them cook evenly.

Step 2: Boil the Potatoes

1. Place potato chunks in a large pot.
2. Cover with cold water and add 1 tbsp salt.
3. Bring to a boil, then reduce to medium and simmer for 15–20 minutes or until the potatoes are very tender (test with a fork).

Step 3: Drain and Steam Dry

1. Drain the potatoes in a colander.
2. Let them sit in the colander for 5 minutes to allow excess steam to escape. This prevents watery mashed potatoes.

Step 4: Mash the Potatoes

1. Use a potato masher, ricer, or hand mixer to break them down to your desired consistency.
2. While the potatoes are still hot, add the cream cheese and butter.

Step 5: Mix and Cream

1. Stir vigorously until the cream cheese and butter are melted and fully combined.
2. Gradually add the warm milk or cream, a little at a time, until the desired creaminess is reached.

Step 6: Season to Perfection
