What You'll Need:

– 4 lbs russet potatoes – 8 ounces of cream cheese – ¼ cup butter – ½ cup of heavy cream – 2 tsp salt – 1 tsp pepper

Prep your potatoes Peel them and dice into 1” cubes. Soak in water for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove some of the oxalates for better digestion and gives you creamier results.

Cook Drain and rinse the soaked potatoes, then add them to a large pot of cold water with 1 tsp of salt and bring to a rolling boil.

2

Boil for 15–20 minutes, or until they fall apart with no resistance when poked with a fork.

3

Drain and mash Drain out excess water, return to the hot pot (off the heat), and toss in the cream cheese, butter, heavy cream, salt, and pepper.
