Mashed Potatoes Extraordinaire image

This is a great recipe to use at Thanksgiving or Christmas because it can be made ahead and heated through when needed. I usually make a half recipe because we are a family of 5. I got this recipe from Company's Coming.

Time 55m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 lbs potatoes, peeled and quartered
8 ounces cream cheese, softened (reduced fat is fine)
1 cup sour cream (low fat is fine)
1/4 cup butter (I prefer butter) or 1/4 cup margarine (I prefer butter)
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
2 tablespoons butter
paprika (garnish)

Steps:

  • Cook potatoes as usual in salted water until tender. Drain. Push through potato ricer.
  • Add cream cheese in pieces. Add next 5 ingredients. Beat until smooth and fluffy. Scrape into a 2 qt casserole.
  • Place dabs of butter here and there over the top of the potatoes. Sprinkle with paprika. Cover and heat in 350 F oven until heated through (about 30-45 minutes, depending whether you've made it ahead and have taken it from the fridge).
