Creamy Mashed Potatoes

Mashed potatoes and yams are mainstays for every holiday dinner, at least in my house. Both made an expected appearance at our Thanksgiving dinner. My husband loves my mashed potatoes and I love it as well because it is so simple to make.

Ingredients
6 medium sized yellow potatoes, peeled
2 tbsp butter
1/3 cup milk
Freshly ground black pepper

Directions
1. In a large pot, add potatoes and fill with cold water, ensuring there is at least 1 inch of water to cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to medium.

2. Simmer over medium heat until the potatoes are tender.

3. Drain water and add butter.

4. Mash with a fork or potato masher until the butter is dissolved.


5. Add in milk and freshly ground black pepper. Mash until it is incorporated.


6.  Mash the potatoes longer (or use a potato ricer) if you prefer a smoother texture.
