This is how I make my creamy Yukon Gold mashed potatoes every single time and I get requests from everyone who tries them to either make them or give them the recipe, especially around the holidays.

Ingredients

• 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
• 1 (12 ounce) container whipped cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 pinch garlic salt, or more to taste

• ¼ cup milk, or more as needed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender but not completely falling apart, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

Step 2

Add cream cheese, sour cream, and butter; mash with a potato masher until potatoes are mashed and everything is incorporated. Add Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup milk, garlic paste, garlic salt, salt, and pepper; mix with a large wooden spoon until combined. Taste and adjust salt and pepper if needed. Stir in chives and add more milk if you want a creamier consistency.
