Preparation
- 1
Peel and Chop the Potatoes
Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into equal-sized chunks (about 1-2 inches). This ensures even cooking.
- 2
Mashing and Mixing
- 3
Drain the Potatoes
Once the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander and let them sit for a minute to allow excess steam to escape.
- 4
Add Butter and Cream
Return the drained potatoes to the pot. Add 1 cup of unsalted butter and 1 cup of heavy cream to the potatoes.
- 5
Mash the Potatoes
Using a potato masher or a hand mixer, mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Be careful not to over-mix, as this can make the potatoes gummy.

Season the Potatoes
Add 1 tsp of black pepper, 1 tsp of garlic powder, and 2 tbs of chopped fresh chives to the mashed potatoes. Mix until well combined.
