With just 5 ingredients, you can have the creamiest and most delicious Boursin mashed potatoes. This herb-flavored French cheese adds tons of flavor and richness to recipes without needing a long list of ingredients.

Ingredients
- 5 lbs potatoes Yukon Gold, Russet, or a combination of the two, 2.3 kg
- 1 Tbsp salt
- 1 cup milk whole or 2%, 236 mL
- 1 .3-oz block Boursin cheese 150 g
- 2 Tbsp fresh chopped chives
Instructions
- Cook Potatoes: Cut 5 lbs potatoes into 1-inch cubes (I like to peel half of them and leave the other half unpeeled for some texture variation). Add potatoes to a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 Tbsp salt, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and let cook for 12 to 15 minutes, or until fork tender.
- Dry Potatoes: Drain potatoes then return them to the pot. Jostle the potatoes around in the hot pot to help them dry.
- Mash: Heat 1 cup milk in the microwave or on the stove until hot. Use a potato masher to partially mash the potatoes. Add 1 5.3-oz block Boursin cheese, continuing to mash until fluffy (don't over mash, as this can cause the potatoes to become gummy). Stir in hot milk and 2 Tbsp fresh chopped chives.
- Serve hot with a pat of butter or gravy!
Notes
- Storage: Leftover mashed potatoes will keep for up to 4 days in the fridge in an airtight container. Reheat them with an additional splash of milk until creamy again.
- Can you freeze leftovers? No, I don't recommend that because the milk in it causes the texture to change.
- Make Ahead: If you want to make them in advance, I recommend cooking the potatoes but waiting to mash them and adding the cream and cheese until you're closer to serving them. This ensures they will be fluffy and not stodgy.
