Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces Coarse salt and ground pepper 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces 1 to 1 1/4 cups milk, warmed

Directions

In a large pot, cover potatoes by 2 inches with salted water. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook until potatoes are tender, about 12 minutes. Drain thoroughly and return to pot; mash with a fork or potato masher until potatoes reach desired texture.

Over low heat, add butter and stir until melted. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until potatoes are stiff, about 1 minute. Gradually stir in 1 cup milk, adding up to cup more if needed. Season potatoes with salt and pepper.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       09/14/2017   I like it more creamy so I reduce the milk and instead add sour cream. U know something? I sauté a little garlic in butter and add it and you can imagine the aroma. People always ask me why it tastes different

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       03/22/2014   These are perfectly good. The only way I make mashed potatoes now...easy to make in advance and reheat. Sometimes I use half and half instead of milk if I want them a little more rich and creamy.
