1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into even-sized chunks to ensure they cook evenly.
2
Boil the Potatoes
Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 tsp of salt to the water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
3
Drain the Potatoes
Once the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander and let them sit for a minute to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
4
Mash the Potatoes
Return the drained potatoes to the pot. Add 4 tbs of butter, 1 cup of milk, and 4 oz of cream cheese. Use a potato masher or a hand mixer to mash until smooth and creamy.
5
Season the Potatoes
Add 1 tsp of black pepper and taste for seasoning. Adjust salt and pepper as desired.
6
Finish with Chives
Fold in the chopped chives for added flavor and garnish.
