Ingredients

  1. 8 pounds russet potatoes
  2. 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  3. 1 cup butter, cut into pieces
  4. ½ cup prepared minced garlic
  5. 1 tablespoon salt, or more to taste

Instructions

  1. Rinse potatoes thoroughly and cut into 2- to 3-inch chunks. Place into a large pot and cover with just enough hot water to be about 1 inch over the top of the potatoes. Bring to a boil.
  2. Boil until potatoes slide off the end of a fork when poked, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain in a colander and return to the pot.
  3. Mix in cream cheese, butter, garlic, and salt. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes, then stir with a wooden spoon to mix thoroughly.
  4. You can use Idaho potatoes instead of russets. You may remove peel the potatoes if you like however I believe it takes away from the flavor.
  5. If you don’t like lumpy potatoes, I recommend using a hand mixer to mix the potatoes after mashing them.
