These are truly the ultimate in mashed potatoes. The fresh chives add a bright flavor to make a dish that’s no longer ordinary.

Why Try? Cream cheese gives these potatoes a luxurious creaminess that comes through even if they are reheated for another meal.

Foodie Byte: For a variation on this recipe, try baking these potatoes in a casserole dish after they’ve been mashed at 350°F for 20 minutes or until they take on a golden color on top.
