The holidays can be stressful! One way to reduce stress is to make side dishes ahead of the holiday! You will love this perfect rich and creamy mashed potatoes recipe!
Ingredients
- 10 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 box cream cheese (8 oz. brick)
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1⁄2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon white pepper
- 1-3 pats salted butter, to place on top after reheating
Directions
- Add peeled, diced potatoes into a large pot and fill room temp with water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Drain potatoes and place them back into large pot, and mash until smooth. Add cream cheese, sour cream, butter, and spices and mix until combined.
- Transfer potatoes into a large slow cooker and top with pats of butter. Place in refrigerator until ready to reheat.
- To reheat potatoes, turn the slow cooker on low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours.
Notes
Reheat: You can use the oven to reheat as well. Place mashed potatoes in greased 9-13 baking dish, instead of a slow cooker, and top with pats of butter. Preheat oven to 350ºF (175ºC) and bake for 30 minutes or until heated through.
