Smashed Potatoes

This is my family's favorite mashed potato recipe.

On the menu: Smashed potatoes

Ingredients:

10 pounds of potatoes

1/2 stick butter

1/2 cup cream cheese

2 cups milk

Salt and pepper to taste

Put a pot of water on to boil.  While the water is heating, peel and cut the potatoes and place them into a colander, rinse.

Place the potatoes into the boiling water and cook until a fork slides nicely in and out.

Drain.

Place potatoes back into the pot, add butter, cream cheese, and milk.

Mash until desired consistency.  My family does not like ours lumpy, so I mashed mine until smooth.
