    Drain and Mash

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the unsalted butter, milk, garlic powder, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Mix Until Smooth

    Using a potato masher or a hand mixer, mash the potatoes until they are smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
