Creamy Mashed Potatoes Recipe
Creamy Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients:
- 4 cups Chicken Broth or Certified Organic Chicken Broth
- 12 Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 cup light cream
- 4 tablespoons butter
Directions:
- Heat the broth and potatoes in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Cover and cook for 10 – 12 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Drain the potatoes well in a strainer, reserving the broth.
- Mash the potatoes with the reserved broth, the cream and butter. Season to taste.
Recipe Tips:
- Flavor Variation: For Mashed Potatoes, stir 1/2 cup sour cream, 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (reserve some to sprinkle on top), and 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives into the hot mashed potatoes. Sprinkle with the reserved bacon.
- Easy Substitution: For Creamy Sweet Potatoes, substitute 2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 5 1/2 cups) for the potatoes. Makes 5 servings.
- Serving Suggestion: These potatoes are delicious served with your favorite Gravy.
