A well known chef’s tip: “Stop adding milk or water to your mashed potatoes. This ingredient makes them creamier than at the restaurant!”

heavy cream has a higher fat content, which gives your potatoes:

A richer flavor
A smoother, silkier texture
That luxurious, melt-in-your-mouth finish
And when paired with butter, it creates the kind of mashed potatoes you usually only get at high-end restaurants.

Ingredients You’ll Need

For the creamiest mashed potatoes ever:

1 kg (2 lbs) potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
½ cup heavy cream (warmed)
4 tablespoons butter
Salt (to taste)
Optional: black pepper, garlic, or cream cheese
