Instructions
- Place potatoes in 4-quart saucepan. Cover with water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender.
- Drain and return potatoes to pan on low heat. Add garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mash with potato masher, gradually adding milk, then butter. Stir in cheese.
Test Kitchen Tips:
- Our recipe calls for russet potatoes which have a light, fluffy texture when mashed. As a substitute, you can reach for gold potatoes, such as Yukon golds, for a rich and creamy flavor.
- This classic side dish is perfect for making alongside other popular Thanksgiving and holiday recipes like classic roasted turkey, green bean casserole and cinnamon sugar glazed carrots, but it pairs just as well with everyday meals like herb baked salmon, crispy oven-fried chicken or garlic pepper steak.
